Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative StudyGraft patency after off-pump versus on-pump coronary artery surgery in high-risk patients.
To compare angiographic graft patency in high-risk patients randomly allocated to off-pump vs. on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). ⋯ In patients with 3-vessel disease and a high-risk profile we found no statistically significant difference in graft patency between off-pump and on-pump CABG at 1-year coronary angiographic follow-up.
