On-Pump Beating/Non-Beating CABG in Stable Angina Have Similar Outcomes
Objective: On pump beating/non-beating coronary artery bypass grafts (CABG) has been
compared in patients with unstable angina and/or severe left ventricular
dysfunction. There is scarce evidence regarding the beneficial use of
on-pump beating CABG in patients with stable angina and normal left
ventricular function. Our aim was to study the postoperative results using
both techniques in this group of patients.Methods: One thousand one hundred and forty-five patients with stable angina underwent
on-pump isolated CABG in Uruguay from 2011 to 2015. Patients were grouped
into beating/non-beating CABG. Operative mortality and long ...
