07/01/2008 - "Substantial advantages in off-pump coronary artery bypass were seen in bleeding reduction, improved sternal healing, and higher discharge hematocrits despite fewer transfusions. "
04/01/2005 - "The aim of this prospective randomized trial was to evaluate the efficacy of 3 intraoperative warming systems (Warm-Touch, Thermamed SmartCare OP system, and Allon 2001) on maintenance of normothermia and to investigate their effects on perioperative bleeding and transfusion requirements in patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting. "
05/01/2014 - "The goal of the present study was to compare the measures of renal function, postoperative bleeding, and transfusion requirements in patients undergoing hybrid revascularization compared with off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). "

07/01/2008 - "Off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) will become the gold standard surgical procedure for the treatment of ischemic heart disease. "
12/01/2006 - "In this observational study, we measured myocardial electrical impedance, a parameter that responds to myocardial ischemia, as well as ST-segment changes during off-pump coronary artery bypass graft surgery in 12 patients with two-vessel coronary artery disease undergoing revascularisation of the left anterior descending and the posterior descending coronary arteries. "
12/17/2014 - "Many literatures have proven that postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) was very common in old patients after the injury of acute myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (AMIR) clinically such as the off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery (OPCAB) without definite mechanism; however, reports on the animal experiments were rarely seen. "

11/01/2011 - "In this meta-analysis, we sought to determine the efficacy of the Heartstring proximal anastomotic device to reduce the risk of postoperative stroke after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB). "
12/01/2012 - "Most recent published meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) showed that off-pump coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) reduces incidence of stroke by 30% compared with on-pump CABG, but showed no difference in other outcomes. "
09/11/2012 - "This study aimed to assess if clampless off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) decreases risk-adjusted mortality, stroke rate, and morbidity in unselected patients in comparison to conventional CABG. "
09/01/2011 - "The aim of this paper is to review the randomised control trials (RCT), systematic reviews and meta-analyses of studies, comparing patients who have undergone on- or off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgeries that have used stroke or cognition as an outcome to determine whether CPB is associated with brain damage. "
