|---|---|
| Main Objective: Measure the endogenous NO production in the LIMA, RIMA, SVG 6 months after CABG;Secondary Objective: Observe differences in vasodilatation between these 3 grafts with the maximal endothelium induced vasodilatation (substance P), and with a maximal media induced vasodilatation (exogenous NO).;Primary end point(s): - No production by each graft. - Degree of Vasodilatation for each graft | — |
