Conditions
Brief summary
Multiple arterial grafts during CABG increase postoperative survival as compared to a single arterial graft, especially in the long-term period. The study purpose is demonstrate that use of 2 or more arterial grafts for elective primary surgical revascularization in patients with multivessel disease is associated with a reduction in mortality, stroke, heart attack, and repeat revascularization.
Interventions
A randomized study comparing two groups of patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) at our institute. Patient first group underwent multiarterial coronary bypass surgery (left and right mammary arteries, radial artery).
Materials: Two hundred patients listed for CABG
Procedures: All CABGs were performed through a median sternotomy during cardiopulmonary bypass. Full heparinization was given. It anticipated to take an additional 20 minutes for multiarterial coronary bypass surge
