Coronary-artery bypass surgery in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
BACKGROUND The survival benefit of a strategy of coronary-artery bypass grafting (CABG) added to guideline-directed medical therapy, as compared with medical therapy alone, in patients with coronary artery disease, heart failure, and severe left ...

Cardiac magnetic resonance findings predict increased resource utilization in elective coronary artery bypass grafting [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Morbidity following CABG (coronary artery bypass grafting) is difficult to predict and leads to increased healthcare costs. We hypothesized that pre-operative CMR (cardiac magnetic resonance) findings would predict resource utilization in elective CABG ...

Percutaneous Coronary Intervention of Native Artery Versus Bypass Graft in Patients with Prior Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery

open access: yesReviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Background: Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is common in patients with prior coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG), however, there is limited data on the association between the PCI target-vessel and clinical outcomes.

Sudden cardiac death in patients with ischemic heart failure undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting results from the STICH randomized clinical trial (Surgical Treatment for Ischemic Heart Failure) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background—The risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in patients with heart failure following CABG has not been examined in a contemporary clinical trial of surgical revascularization. This analysis describes the incidence, timing and clinical predictors of

Preoperative neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio and outcome from coronary artery bypass grafting [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Background: An elevated preoperative white blood cell count has been associated with a worse outcome after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Leukocyte subtypes, and particularly the neutrophil-lymphocyte (N/L) ratio, may however, convey superior ...

Medical therapy, percutaneous coronary intervention and prognosis in patients with chronic total occlusions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Objective There is little published data reporting outcomes for those found to have a chronic total coronary occlusion (CTO) that is electively treated medically versus those treated by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Experience of cardiac rehabilitation after coronary artery surgery: effects on health and risk factors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Objective:Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) programs are provided to support the recovery process following acute myocardial infarction and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Attendance varies.

Underuse of coronary revascularization procedures in patients considered appropriate candidates for revascularization. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Background: Ratings by an expert panel of the appropriateness of treatments may offer better guidance for clinical practice than the variable decisions of individual clinicians, yet there have been no prospective studies of clinical outcomes. We compared
