  • The conduits used as bypass grafts are routinely the left internal mammary artery (LIMA) and the saphenous vein grafts (SVG) out of the lower extremities. (statpearls.com)
  • Other conduits that may be grafted include the right internal mammary artery (RIMA), the radial artery, and the gastroepiploic artery. (statpearls.com)
  • 300 s, and harvesting of the left internal mammary artery (LIMA) and saphenous vein (SV). (biomedcentral.com)
  • Background Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) performed within 5 days of clopidogrel administration is associated with increased bleeding. (medscape.com)
  • Excess bleeding is of particular concern in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), with significant implications for patient morbidity and mortality, length of hospital stay, and health care costs. (medscape.com)
  • The ideal treatment for ischemic coronary artery disease (CAD) remains a matter of debate. (medscape.com)
  • The two primary modalities for revascularization are coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). (medscape.com)
  • The ORBITA (Objective Randomised Blinded Investigation with optimal medical Therapy of Angioplasty in stable angina) trial randomized PCI with placebo in patients with stable coronary artery disease due to single-vessel CAD in the presence of moderate angina. (medscape.com)
  • In 1962, the first surgical myocardial revascularization procedure, the patch graft technique, was performed to repair an obstruction of the left main trunk coronary artery. (medscape.com)
  • Shortly thereafter, coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) became the most commonly performed surgical procedure in the United States. (medscape.com)
  • Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is a major surgical operation where atheromatous blockages in a patient's coronary arteries are bypassed with harvested venous or arterial conduits. (statpearls.com)
  • This activity illustrates the indications for coronary artery bypass and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in the management of patients with CAD. (statpearls.com)
  • Identify the anatomical structures, indications, and contraindications of coronary artery bypass grafting. (statpearls.com)
  • Describe the equipment, personnel, preparation, and technique in regards to coronary artery bypass grafting. (statpearls.com)
  • Outline the potential complications of coronary artery bypass grafting. (statpearls.com)
  • Review interprofessional team strategies for improving care coordination and communication to advance coronary artery bypass grafting and improve outcomes. (statpearls.com)
  • The myocardium of the heart is supplied by 2 major coronary arteries: the left main coronary artery and the right coronary artery (RCA). (statpearls.com)
  • The left main coronary artery is usually a short segment that branches into the left anterior descending (LAD) artery and the circumflex artery. (statpearls.com)
  • The coronary circulation can be divided into left-dominant, right-dominant, and co-dominant systems depending on which artery supplies the interventricular septum and PDA. (statpearls.com)
  • Blockages in any of the coronary arteries cause a corresponding defect in myocardial perfusion, ischemia and if unrepaired can lead to permanent infarct or damage to the myocardium. (statpearls.com)
  • CABG is generally recommended when there are high-grade blockages in any of the major coronary arteries and/or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has failed to clear the blockages. (statpearls.com)
  • Contraindications to CABG include patient refusal, coronary arteries incompatible with grafting, and the absence of viable myocardium to graft. (statpearls.com)
  • The efficacy of off-pump coronary endarterectomy (CE) has been proven in patients with diffuse coronary artery disease (DCAD). (biomedcentral.com)
  • From January 2012 to December 2014, 246 patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG) + CE were included. (biomedcentral.com)
  • Sixty-five patients (26.42%) were in the left anterior descending branch (LAD) group (CE on LAD), 134(54.47%) in the right coronary artery (RCA) group (CE on RCA), and 47(19.10%) in the multi-vessels group. (biomedcentral.com)
  • Although increasing advances in surgical techniques and aggressive antithrombotic therapy, many cardiac surgeons avoided performing CE during Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) due to life-threatening postoperative myocardial infarction (PMI). (biomedcentral.com)
  • According to the territory and number of CE, patients were divided into LAD group (CE on left anterior descending artery n = 65), RCA group (CE on the right coronary artery, n = 134), and Multi-vessels group [at least CE on two of LAD, RCA and left circumflex artery (LCX), n = 47].
