Rate of Vein Graft Occlusion in CABG Lower With No-Touch Technique
Significantly lower rates of vein graft occlusion seen at three and 12 months for no-touch versus conventional vein harvesting.
Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG)
Similar Post-Revascularization Outcomes With P2Y12 Inhibitors, DAPT
This study assesses the risks and benefits of P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy vs dual antiplatelet therapy and whether they are modified by patients’ characteristics.
Demographic Characteristics Affect 30-Day CABG Hospital Readmission Rates
The researchers’ goals included quantifying and examining unplanned readmissions within 30 days of CABG surgery, including their causes and associated factors.
High Preoperative HbA1c Linked to Adverse CABG Outcomes
The researchers studied the Veterans Affairs data to evaluate the association of pre-operative hemoglobin A1c and long-term outcome after isolated coronary artery bypass grafting.
Elective Revascularization Decreases Cardiac Mortality of CAD Patients
The researchers reviewed all trials comparing elective coronary revascularization plus medical therapy vs medical therapy alone for managing stable patients with coronary artery disease to determine the value of these approaches.
Revascularization Type Not Linked to Changes in Rate of Memory Decline
The study objective was to compare the change in the rate of memory decline after PCI vs CABG.
Potent Up-Front Antiplatelet Therapy Lowers Mortality for Patients With ACS
Researchers compared a potent antiplatelet inhibition strategy with a less potent inhibition treatment plan in patients with acute coronary syndrome undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery.
Assessing Long-Term All-Cause Mortality After PCI vs CABG
The risk for 10-year all-cause mortality was found to be comparable after PCI and CABG in patients with prior cerebrovascular disease.
Addition of Evolocumab to Statin Therapy Found to Lower Risk for Complex Coronary Disease Requiring Revascularization
Addition of evolocumab to statin therapy was found to lower the risk for complex coronary disease requiring revascularization.
Radial Artery vs Saphenous Vein Use in CABG: Examining Long-Term Outcomes
Use of radial artery vs saphenous vein for coronary artery bypass grafting was found to be associated with a reduced long-term risk for a composite of cardiovascular outcomes.
