Coronary revascularisation using cardiopulmonary bypass remains the gold standard
treatment for coronary artery disease. Over the past decade, techniques of revascularisation …

BACKGROUND: The best approach to surgical myocardial revascularization remains
controversial. We compared outcomes of conventional on-pump coronary artery bypass …

Coronary artery disease is a global health concern, with increasing morbidity and mortality.
Surgical coronary artery bypass grafting has been performed on cardiopulmonary bypass for …

BACKGROUND: Comparisons of off-pump (OPCAB) versus conventional on-pump coronary
artery bypass (CCAB) consistently report fewer grafts per patient with OPCAB. Performing …

Background The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the safety and the cost-
effectiveness of using preoperative IABP as support compared with postoperative IABP …

OBJECTIVE: Patients with chronic dialysis-dependent end-stage renal disease are
increasingly referred for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and their early outcome is …

BACKGROUND: Off-pump coronary artery bypass graft surgery (OPCAB) is associated with
lower early mortality and benefits women disproportionately. The objective of this study was …

Abstract Background Coronary Artery Bypass Graft operation for ischemic heart disease
provides improved quality of life and, in some patients, prolonged survival. Concern has …

Objective—This study was undertaken to assess whether plasmas isolated during off-pump
coronary surgery trigger less oxidative stress than those isolated during on-pump surgery …

Background: Off-pump coronary surgery is an established method of less invasive cardiac
surgery. We compared our early results in patents with I-vessel disease who underwent …
