Coronary Artery Bypass (Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery)

Surgical therapy of ischemic coronary artery disease achieved by grafting a section of saphenous vein, internal mammary artery, or other substitute between the aorta and the obstructed coronary artery distal to the obstructive lesion.

01/01/2015 - "Many studies have unequivocally demonstrated that coronary artery bypass grafting surgery generally leads to significant reduction in heart rate variability, which is even more pronounced than after myocardial infarction. "
01/01/2021 - "It has been reported that successful percutaneous coronary intervention for chronic total occlusion (CTO-PCI) might be associated with symptom relief, a lower rate of subsequent myocardial infarction and coronary artery bypass graft surgery, and improved long-term survival, compared with unsuccessful PCI for CTO. "
01/01/2020 - "At a median (interquartile range) follow-up of 10 (10-11) years, the use of the radial artery, compared with the saphenous vein, in coronary artery bypass grafting was associated with a statistically significant reduction in the incidence of the composite outcome of death, myocardial infarction, or repeat revascularization (220 vs 237 total events; 41 vs 47 events per 1000 patient-years; hazard ratio, 0.73 [95% CI, 0.61-0.88]; P < .001) and of the composite of death or myocardial infarction (188 vs 193 total events; 35 vs 38 events per 1000 patient-years; hazard ratio, 0.77 [95% CI, 0.63-0.94]; P = .01). "
09/10/2013 - "The prevalence of myocardial infarction history, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) history in male group were significantly greater than that in female group (48.0% vs 39.9%, P < 0.05; 30.6% vs 22.3%, P < 0.05; 19.9% vs 10.3%, P < 0.01). "
04/01/2006 - "In patients with previous myocardial infarction, treatment with skeletal myoblasts in conjunction with coronary artery bypass is safe and feasible and is associated with an increased global and regional left ventricular function, improvement in viability, and perfusion of cardiac tissue and no significant incidence of arrhythmias."
