Moreno-Angarita A, Peña D, de León JDLP, Estacio M, Vila LP, Muñoz MI, Cadavid-Alvear E. Current indications and surgical strategies for myocardial revascularization in patients with left ventricular dysfunction: a scoping review. J Cardiothorac Surg 2024; 19:469. [PMID: 39068469 PMCID: PMC11282776 DOI: 10.1186/s13019-024-02844-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2024] [Accepted: 06/14/2024] [Indexed: 07/30/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) accounts for more than 60% of congestive heart failure cases and is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates. Myocardial revascularization in patients with left ventricular dysfunction (LVD) and a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤35% aims to improve survival and quality of life and reduce complications associated with heart failure and coronary artery disease. The majority of randomized clinical trials have consistently excluded those patients, resulting in evidence primarily derived from observational studies. MAIN BODY We performed a scoping review using the Arksey and O'Malley methodology in five stages: 1) formulating the research question; 2) locating relevant studies; 3) choosing studies; 4) organizing and extracting data; and 5) compiling, summarizing, and presenting the findings. This literature review covers primary studies and systematic reviews focusing on surgical revascularization strategies in adult patients with ischemic left ventricular dysfunction (LVD) and a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of 35% or lower. Through an extensive search of Medline and the Cochrane Library, a systematic review was conducted to address three questions regarding myocardial revascularization in these patients. These questions outline the current knowledge on this topic, current surgical strategies (off-pump vs. on-pump), and graft options (including hybrid techniques) utilized for revascularization. Three independent reviewers (MAE, DP, and AM) applied the inclusion criteria to all the included studies, obtaining the full texts of the most relevant studies. The reviewers subsequently assessed these articles to make the final decision on their inclusion in the review. Out of the initial 385 references, 156 were chosen for a detailed review. After examining the full articles were examined, 134 were found suitable for scoping review. CONCLUSION The literature notes the scarcity of surgical revascularization in LVD patients in randomized studies, with observational data supporting coronary revascularization's benefits. ONCABG is recommended for multivessel disease in LVD with LVEF < 35%, while OPCAB is proposed for older, high-risk patients. Strategies like internal thoracic artery skeletonization harvesting and postoperative glycemic control mitigate risks with BITA in uncontrolled diabetes. Total arterial revascularization maximizes long-term survival, and hybrid revascularization offers advantages like shorter hospital stays and reduced costs for significant LAD lesions.

Abstract
The aim. To analyze the effectiveness of the developed algorithms for the perioperative management of high-risk cardiac surgery patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and polymorbidity.
Materials and methods. We analyzed perioperative management of 354 high-risk cardiac surgery patients with CAD with EuroSCORE II predicted mortality >5%, among which 194 (54.8%) underwent isolated coronary artery bypass grafting, and 160 (45.2%) had surgical myocardial revascularization with accompanying valvular pathology correction or left ventricular postinfarction aneurysm resection. All the patients were discharged after cardiac surgery performed at the Department of Surgical Treatment of CAD of the National Amosov Institute of Cardiovascular Surgery of the National Academy of Medical Sciences of Ukraine in the period from 2009 to 2019. As part of the study, general clinical examinations, electrocardiography, echocardiography, coronary angiography, cardiosurgical treatment were provided, and perioperative patient management protocols were developed and implemented.
Results. Based on the conducted detailed analysis, it was established that the success of surgical revascularization of the myocardium depends not only on cardiac factors, but also on the compensation of concomitant diseases, the work of an experienced cardiac team consisting of a cardiologist, an interventionist, an anesthesiologist, a cardiac surgeon, and an intensivist. Treatment and prevention measures should be personalized and aimed at timely response to changes in laboratory and hemodynamic indicators of patients at all stages of their management, as well as stabilization of concomitant diseases. An important point in the preoperative preparation of cardiac surgery patients is verification of concomitant diseases with the aim of their timely compensation. The implemented algorithm for searching for comorbid conditions made it possible to improve the diagnosis of initial disorders of glucose metabolism, abnormal uric acid levels and cerebrovascular disease. Lowering the glucose level according to the developed algorithm of management of patients with impaired glucose metabolism in the perioperative period made it possible to reduce the number of postoperative wound infections by 3.4% and arrhythmological complications by 19.4%. Correction of drug therapy taking into account the glomerular filtration rate made it possible to avoid postoperative hemodialysis. Preventive prescription of therapeutic doses of proton pump inhibitors against the background of dual antiplatelet therapy, according to the developed protocol, led to a decrease in postoperative gastroduodenal complications from 5.1% to 0.3%.
Conclusions. Implementation of the system of personalized treatment and preventive management of patients in the perioperative period made it possible to reduce postoperative complications from 16.7% to 4% (p=0.0190).

Abstract
Background The purpose of this evidence-based consensus statement is to systematically review and meta-analyze the randomized and nonrandomized evidence comparing off-pump (OPCAB) to conventional coronary artery bypass (CCAB) surgery and to provide consensus on the role of OPCAB in low- and high-risk surgical patients. Methods and Results This consensus conference was conducted according to the American College of Cardiology (ACC)/American Heart Association (AHA) standards for development of clinical practice guidelines. The Steering Committee collated all published studies of OPCAB versus CCAB through May 2004 and developed six questions central to controversies surrounding OPCAB surgery in mortality, morbidity, and resource utilization. For mixed-risk patient populations, meta-analysis of 37 randomized clinical trials (3,369 patients, Level A) reported across a total of 53 papers, and two meta-analyses of nonrandomized trials (Level B) comparing OPCAB versus CCAB were identified. For high-risk patient populations, we performed a meta-analysis of 3 randomized and 42 nonrandomized trials (26,349 patients, Level B). Conclusion Meta-analysis of Level A and B evidence provided the basis for the following consensus statements in patients undergoing surgical myocardial revascularization: (1) OPCAB should be considered a safe alternative to CCAB with respect to risk of mortality [Class I, Level A]; (2) With appropriate use of modern stabilizers, heart positioning devices, and adequate surgeon experience, similar completeness of revascularization and graft patency can be achieved [Class IIa, Level A]; (3) OPCAB is recommended to reduce perioperative morbidity [Class I, Level A]; (4) OPCAB may be recommended to minimize midterm cognitive dysfunction [Class IIa, Level A]; (5) OPCAB should be considered as an equivalent alternative to CCAB in regard to quality of life [Class I, Level A]; (6) OPCAB is recommended to reduce the duration of ventilation, ICU and hospital stay, and resource utilization [Class I, Level A]; (7) OPCAB should be considered in high-risk patients to reduce perioperative mortality, morbidity, and resource utilization [Class IIa, Level B].

Abstract
Coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) is a promising alternative technique to detect significant coronary artery lesions in high-risk cardiovascular patients with left ventricular dysfunction (left ventricular ejection fractions < 40%) referred for elective valve surgery, while little research about the use of CCTA to detect the outcomes of heart valve surgery was performed. Forty-six consecutive high-risk cardiovascular patients with the New York Heart Association (NYHA) classification were retrospectively studied. Immediate, 10-week, 20-week, and 40-week outcomes after heart valve surgery were assessed with CCTA. Patients' average age at the time of surgery was 73 years, with the majority being male (54.35%). Among the CCTA parameters detected after 10, 20, and 40 weeks after heart valve surgery, only segment involvement score (SIS) did reach statistical significance when compared with baseline levels. The cumulative mortality rate at 10, 20, and 40 weeks were 19.56%, 30.43%, and 39.13% respectively. It can be seen that the early death is mainly due to complications, and with the time-lapse of surgery, the impact of complications on death is gradually eliminated. CCTA might be a useful tool to detect the outcomes of short- and long-term outcomes after heart valve surgery with high risk cardiovascular patients, and SIS level is associated with the short- and long-term outcomes.

Abstract
The recent development of off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) graft surgical techniques has led to numerous observational and several randomized trials that have investigated outcomes compared with the current gold standard of conventional on-pump coronary bypass (CCAB) graft surgery. This systematic review assesses the current randomized trials that compare OPCAB and CCAB. Numerous end points were investigated, including mortality, stroke, myocardial infarction, atrial fibrillation, blood transfusions, wound infections, and renal failure. In addition to these important outcomes, resource utilization markers were also examined such as hospital length of stay, intensive care unit length of stay, and duration of intubation/ventilation. Finally, when level I evidence from randomized trials was unavailable, level II evidence was examined. This was done for subgroup analysis, where currently no randomized trials exist, looking at OPCAB in high-risk patients. Recommendations were made as to who should receive OPCAB and the potential benefits in this patient population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The euroSCORE II is a widely used pre-coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CAGS) risk score, but its predictive power lacks the specificity to predict outcomes in high-risk patients (<LVEF 40%) due to changes in cardiac surgery case mix, revascularisation techniques and related outcomes in recent years. We investigated the utility of Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging (CMRI) in predicting immediate and six-week outcomes after CAGS. METHODS Fifty-two consecutive patients with high euroSCORE II (>16) and left ventricular (LV) dysfunction (<40%) based on 2D-echocardiography who underwent CAGS and in whom CMRI (1.5T) was performed preoperatively were retrospectively studied. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging parameters were assessed in patients who either had complications immediately post-surgery (n=35), six weeks post-surgery (n=20) or were uncomplicated. RESULTS The average age of patients recruited was 69±5 years with high euroSCORE II (22±4) and low 2D-echocardiography LV ejection fraction (38%±2%). Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging results demonstrated that those with immediate complications had higher LV scar/infarct burden as a proportion of LV mass (17±3% vs 10±3%; p=0.04) with lower circumferential relaxation index (2.5±0.46 vs 2.8±0.56; p=0.05) compared to those with no complications. Early mortality from surgery was 17% (n=9) and was associated with lower RV stroke volume (55±12 vs 68±18; p=0.03) and higher LV infarct scar/burden (18±2% vs 10±2%, p=0.04). Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging showed patients with complications at six weeks post-surgery had higher LV scar/infarct burden (14.5±2% vs 6.8±2%, p=0.03) compared to those without complications. CONCLUSION Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging preoperative LV and RV parameters are valuable in assessing the likelihood of successful outcomes from CAGS in high-risk patients with LV dysfunction.

Abstract
Aim The aims of this study were to determine the early mortality rate in low-risk coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) patients and examine the causes of death, to identify problems that could be avoided in future surgeries. Methods All low-risk patients (EuroSCORE ≤ 2) who died after CABG were included. Their peri-operative information was meticulously studied by internal and independent external reviewers to identify causes of death, which were classified as: cardiac or non-cardiac; and a further division as: (1) non-preventable, (2) preventable (technical error), and (3) preventable (system error). Results Early mortality was 0.93% (24/2 570). Eleven patients (45.8%) were classified as preventable deaths. In six of them the main problem was identified as graft thrombosis, which was secondary to a technical error of either the harvesting or anastomosis of the left internal mammarian artery. There were also five system errors identified as delays in the treatment of an identified and potentially reversible problem. Conclusions Correction of technical and system errors, such as harvesting of the left internal mammarian artery, haemostasis during surgery, and establishing standard protocols for the transfer of patients from ward to intensive care units will eventually lead to improvement in both the quality of care and patient outcomes, even in low-risk groups.

Abstract
There are two basic ways of performing coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG): on pump CABG and off pump CABG. Off pump CABG is relatively a newer procedure to on-pump CABG and does not require the use of the cardiopulmonary bypass machine. On pump CABG is the more traditional method of performing bypass surgery. However its resultant inflammatory effects cause renal dysfunction, gastrointestinal distress and cardiac abnormalities which have forced the surgeons to look for alternatives to the procedure. An extensive literature search revealed that on pump CABG causes better revascularization as compared to off pump CABG while off pump CABG has a much lower post operative morbidity and mortality especially in high risk patients. We suggest that the technique used should depend on the ease of the surgeon doing the operation as both the methods seem almost equally efficient according to the review.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to compare the results of myocardial revascularisation with or without cardiopulmonary bypass in patients with impaired left ventricular function. PATIENTS AND METHODS Five hundred and sixteen consecutive patients who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting from January 2000 through December 2007 were analyzed retrospectively. One hundred and eight cases had a left ventricular EF (ejection fraction) of 45% or less. Of these patients, 78 underwent conventional coronary artery bypass (CCABG) and 30 underwent off-pump procedure (OCABG). The CCABG group received 300IU/kg of heparin while the OCABG received 100IU/kg. The off-pump coronary surgery was carried out using a tissue stabilizer Octopus II. Different pre-, per- and postoperative variables were evaluated among both groups. Statistical analysis was performed by SPSS 11.5. The variables were compared between these two groups using univariate analysis (Chi(2) test, Fisher's test exact) for qualitative variable and (Student's t test, Mann-Whitney's test) for quantitative variable. RESULTS Patients profiles and risk factors were similar among both groups except for age (CCABG: 57.8±9.2 year vs OCABG: 52±9.9 year; P=0.004) and left ventricular EF (CCABG: 37.4±6.3% vs OCABG: 34±7.8%; P=0.02). The number of grafts performed per patient was significantly more among patients who underwent extracorporeal circulation (CCABG: 2.53±0.7 graft/patient vs OCABG: 1.77±0.8 graft/patient; P<0.0001). The hospital mortality was more among CCABG group 9% vs 3.3% in OCABG but the difference was not significant (P=0.3). However, the operative time and the operative room stay were long in CCABG (252±61min vs 175±38min; P<0.0001 - 389±70min vs 298±54min; P<0.0001). The ventilation time was also long in CCABG (32.3±67hour vs 10.4±5.9hour; P=0.15). There was more postoperative myocardial infarction in CCABG (P=0.008), but the EF increased and was better in CCABG. CONCLUSION Off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery provides satisfactory operative results for most patients with reduced left ventricular function. Prospective and randomly study will be necessary before concluding.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting compared with coronary revascularization with cardiopulmonary bypass seems safe and results in about the same outcome in low-risk patients. Observational studies indicate that off-pump surgery may provide more benefit in high-risk patients. Our objective was to compare 30-day outcomes in high-risk patients randomized to coronary artery bypass grafting without or with cardiopulmonary bypass. METHODS AND RESULTS We randomly assigned 341 patients with a EuroSCORE > or = 5 and 3-vessel coronary disease to undergo coronary artery bypass grafting without or with cardiopulmonary bypass. Patients were followed through the Danish National Patient Registry. The primary outcome was a composite of adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (ie, all-cause mortality, acute myocardial infarction, cardiac arrest with successful resuscitation, low cardiac output syndrome/cardiogenic shock, stroke, and coronary reintervention). An independent adjudication committee blinded to treatment allocation assessed the outcomes. Baseline characteristics were well balanced between groups. The mean number of grafts per patient did not differ significantly between groups (3.22 in off-pump group and 3.34 in on-pump group; P=0.11). Fewer grafts were performed to the lateral part of the left ventricle territory during off-pump surgery (0.97 versus 1.14 after on-pump surgery; P=0.01). No significant differences in the composite primary outcome (15% versus 17%; P=0.48) or the individual components were found at 30-day follow-up. CONCLUSIONS Both off- and on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting can be performed in high-risk patients with low short-term complications. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION- clinicaltrials.gov.

Abstract
Outcomes of off-pump multivessel coronary artery bypass were compared with those of the on-pump procedure. From July 2001 to June 2006, 3,637 patients with multivessel coronary disease underwent off-pump coronary artery bypass, and 3,586 patients had on-pump coronary artery bypass in our center. The rates of operative mortality, permanent stroke, renal failure and perioperative myocardial infarction were significantly lower in the off-pump group, and these patients required fewer blood transfusions, shorter durations of ventilatory support, and shorter hospital stays. However, the patients who underwent on-pump coronary artery bypass were considered more high-risk and tended to have more complex procedures.

Abstract
Background Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) with aortic cross-clamping and cardioplegic arrest remains the method of choice for patients requiring standard myocardial revascularization. Therefore, very high-risk patients presenting with acute coronary syndrome, unstable angina, onset of cardiac decompensation and requiring emergency multiple myocardial revascularization, can have a poor outcome. The on-pump beating heart technique can reduce the mortality and the morbidity in such a selected group of patients and this report describes our clinical experience. Methods Out of 290 patients operated for CABG from January 2005 to January 2006, 25 (8.6%) selected high-risk patients suffering from life threatening coronary syndrome (mean age 69 ± 7 years) and requiring emergency multiple myocardial revascularization, underwent on-pump beating heart surgery. The mean pre-operative left ventricle ejection fraction (LVEF) was 27 ± 8%. The majority of them (88%) suffered of tri-vessel coronary disease and 6 (24%) had a left main stump disease. Nine patients (35%) were on severe cardiac failure and seven among them (28%) received a pre-operative intra-aortic balloon pump. The pre-operative EuroScore rate was equal or above 8 in 18 patients (73%). Results All patients underwent on-pump-beating heart coronary revascularization. The mean number of graft/patient was 2.9 ± 0.6 and the internal mammary artery was used in 23 patients (92%). The mean CPB time was 84 ± 19 minutes. Two patients died during the recovery stay in the intensive care unit, and there were no postoperative myocardial infarctions between the survivors. Eight patients suffered of transitorily renal failure and 1 patient developed a sternal wound infection. The mean hospital stay was 12 ± 7 days. The follow-up was complete for all 23 patients survived at surgery and the mean follow-up time was 14 ± 5 months. One patient died during the follow-up for cardiac arrest and 2 patients required an implantable cardiac defibrillator. One year after surgery they all had a standard trans-thoracic echocardiogram showing a mean LVEF rate of 36 ± 11.8%. Conclusion Standard on-pump arrested heart coronary surgery has higher mortality and morbidity in emergencies. The on-pump beating heart myocardial revascularization seems to be a valid alternative for the restricted and selected cohort of patients suffering from life threatening coronary syndrome and requiring multiple emergency CABG.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Risk factors associated with cerebral infarction within 7 days after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting require further statistical elucidation. METHODS From January 1997 to July 2006, off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting was performed in 576 patients at Toyama University Hospital. Factors including previous cerebral infarction, lesions in head and neck vessels, preoperative cerebral ischemic symptoms, intraaortic balloon pump use, number of coronary lesions, number of coronary bypasses, sites of coronary bypasses, number of proximal anastomoses in the ascending aorta, use of aortic no-touch procedure, partial aortic clamping, automatic proximal anastomosis devices, and a proximal seal system were compared retrospectively between patients with and without early cerebral infarction. Factors differing between groups were analyzed further by multivariate logistic regression. RESULTS Ten patients (1.7%) had cerebral infarction within 7 days after surgery. The subjects were divided into two groups, those who had cerebral infarction after surgery (n = 10) and those who did not (n = 566). Factors showing significant intergroup differences were a previous history of cerebral infarction (p < 0.001), preoperative presence of cerebral ischemic symptoms (p < 0.001), vascular lesions in head and neck vessels (p < 0.001), use of partial aortic clamping (p = 0.002), and postoperative atrial fibrillation within 7 days after surgery (p = 0.011). Multiple logistic regression analysis indicated close relationships between previous history of cerebral infarction (odds ratio, 26.6; 95% confidence interval, 2.8 to 251.1; p = 0.004), preoperative presence of cerebral ischemic symptoms plus lesions in head and neck vessels (odds ratio, 22.8; 95% confidence interval 1.8 to 285.7; p = 0.015), and use of partial aortic clamping (odds ratio, 11.1; 95% confidence interval, 1.4 to 85.7; p = 0.021). Postoperative atrial fibrillation within 7 days after surgery (odds ratio, 3.4; 95% confidence interval, 0.7 to 16.5; p = 0.121) was suspected as a risk factor for postoperative cerebral infarction. CONCLUSIONS Multivariate analysis identified independent factors strongly associated with cerebral infarction after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting, such as partial aortic clamping, presence of cerebral ischemic symptoms plus head and neck vascular lesions, and previous cerebral infarction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) is associated with a less intense systemic inflammatory response according to biochemical markers. We studied systemic vascular resistance (SVR) as a physiologic response to systemic inflammatory response to determine any differences between OPCAB and on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (ONCAB) in a prospective randomized trial. METHODS One hundred consecutive patients were randomized to OPCAB or ONCAB, 50 in each group. Antifibrinolytics and steroids were not used. All protocols were identical except for cardiopulmonary bypass. Temperature, SVR index, cardiac index, and blood pressure were measured continuously for the first 24 hours postoperatively. All patients were reviewed at 30 days. RESULTS There was no 30-day mortality, no stroke, and no acute renal failure. Mean temperature peaked at 37.5 degrees C at 12 hours (p = 0.700 between groups). Mean SVR index fell to 1,900 dyne x cm(-5) x m(-2) at 12 to 18 hours; 42% of OPCAB and 32% of ONCAB patients developed very low SVR index (<1,500 dyne x cm(-5) x m(-2)). The incidence of high SVR (>2,500 dyne x cm(-5) x m(-2)) fell from 20% to 2% by 12 to 18 hours. The extent and pattern of SVR index responses were similar in both groups (p = 0.840). Mean cardiac index peaked at 3.0 L x min(-1) x m(-2), 12 to 18 hours postoperatively (p = 0.815 between groups); 84% of OPCAB and 90% of ONCAB had cardiac index greater than 2.2 L x min(-1) x m(-2) at all times. Only 10% of patients required vasopressors. Blood pressure responses were also similar (p = 0.314). CONCLUSIONS The incidence of low SVR, and patterns of SVR changes were similar in ONCAB and OPCAB, and were clinically unimportant as few patients required vasopressor support. Cardiac outputs and clinical outcomes were excellent in both groups.

Abstract
Background—
It has been suggested that the risk of cerebral dysfunction is less with off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) than with conventional coronary artery bypass grafting (CCAB). However, evidence for this statement is preliminary, and additional insight is needed.
Methods and Results—
The study was a substudy of the randomized Best Bypass Surgery trial that compared OPCAB with CCAB treatment with respect to intraoperative and postoperative mortality and morbidity in patients with a moderate to high level of predicted preoperative risk. The outcome was cognitive function. A total of 120 elderly patients (mean age 76 years, SD 4.5 years) underwent psychometric testing before surgery and at a mean of 103 (SD 15) days postoperatively with a neuropsychological test battery that included 7 parameters from 4 tests. Cognitive dysfunction was defined as the occurrence of at least 2 of the 7 possible deficits. Secondary analysis was performed on the basis of the definition of a 20% decline in cognitive scores compared with baseline, and with
z
score analysis. Cognitive dysfunction was identified in 4 of the 54 patients (7.4%, 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.1% to 17.9%) in the OPCAB group and 5 of the 51 patients (9.8%, 95% CI 3.3% to 21.4%) in the CCAB group. We found no difference in incidence of cognitive dysfunction between the groups regardless of the definition applied.
Conclusions—
In elderly high-risk patients, no significant difference was found in the incidence of cognitive dysfunction 3 months after either OPCAB or CCAB.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of off-pump coronary bypass surgery (OPCAB) on mortality and morbidity. BACKGROUND Despite its potential for reducing morbidity and mortality, OPCAB's role in clinical practice remains controversial. METHODS A meta-analysis of 37 randomized controlled trials (RCTs) (n = 3,449) and 22 risk-adjusted (logistic regression or propensity-score) observational studies (n = 293,617) was performed. Two reviewers performed literature searches (MEDLINE, EMBASE, PubMed, reference lists), quality assessment, and data extraction. Treatment effects were calculated as odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS In RCTs, OPCAB was associated with reduced atrial fibrillation (OR 0.59; 95% CI 0.46 to 0.77) and trends toward reduced 30-day mortality (OR 0.91 95% CI 0.45 to 1.83), stroke (OR 0.52; 95% CI 0.25 to 1.05), and myocardial infarction (OR 0.79; 95% CI 0.50 to 1.25). Observational studies showed OPCAB to be associated with reduced 30-day mortality (OR 0.72; 95% CI 0.66 to 0.78), stroke (OR 0.62; 95% CI 0.55 to 0.69), infarction (OR 0.66; 95% CI 0.50 to 0.88), and atrial fibrillation (OR 0.78; 95% CI 0.74 to 0.82). At one to two years, OPCAB was associated with trends toward reduced mortality, but also increased repeat revascularization (RCT: OR 1.75, 95% CI 0.78 to 3.94; Observational: OR 1.35, 95% CI 0.76 to 2.39). CONCLUSIONS Randomized controlled trials did not find, aside from atrial fibrillation, the statistically significant reductions in short-term mortality and morbidity demonstrated by observational studies. These discrepancies might be due to differing patient-selection and study methodology. Future studies must focus on improving research methodology, recruiting high-risk patients, and collecting long-term data.

Abstract
Background In high-risk coronary artery bypass patients; off-pump versus on-pump surgical strategies still remain a matter of debate, regarding which method results in a lower incidence of perioperative mortality and morbidity. We describe our experience in the treatment of high-risk coronary artery patients and compare patients assigned to on-pump and off-pump surgery. Methods From March 2002 to July 2004, 86 patients with EuroSCOREs > 5 underwent myocardial revascularization with or without cardiopulmonary bypass. Patients were assigned to off-pump surgery (40) or on-pump surgery (46) based on coronary anatomy coupled with the likelihood of achieving complete revascularization. Results Those patients undergoing off-pump surgery had significantly poorer left ventricular function than those undergoing on-pump surgery (28.6 ± 5.8% vs. 40.5 ± 7.4%, respectively, p < 0.05) and also had higher Euroscore values (7.26 ± 1.4 vs. 12.1 ± 1.8, respectively, p < 0.05). Differences between the two groups were nonsignificant with regard to number of grafts per patient, mean duration of surgery, anesthesia and operating room time, length of stay intensive care unit (ICU) and rate of postoperative atrial fibrillation Conclusion Utilization of off-pump coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) does not confer significant clinical advantages in all high-risk patients. This review suggest that off-pump coronary revascularization may represent an alternative approach for treatment of patients with Euroscore ≥ 10 and left ventricular function ≤ 30%.

Abstract
One of the most hotly debated and polarizing issues in cardiac surgery has been whether coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) without the use of cardiopulmonary bypass or cardioplegia (off-pump CABG, or OPCAB) is superior to that performed with the heart-lung machine and the heart’s being chemically arrested (standard CABG). Various clinical trials are reviewed comparing the 2 surgical strategies, including several large retrospective analyses, meta-analyses, and the randomized trials that address different aspects of standard CABG and OPCAB. Although definitive conclusions about the relative merits of standard CABG and OPCAB are difficult to reach from these varied randomized and nonrandomized studies, several generalizations may be possible. Patients may achieve an excellent outcome with either type of procedure, and individuals’ outcomes likely depend more on factors other than whether they underwent standard CABG or OPCAB. Nevertheless, there appear to be trends in most studies. These trends include less blood loss and need for transfusion after OPCAB, less myocardial enzyme release after OPCAB up to 24 hours, less early neurocognitive dysfunction after OPCAB, and less renal insufficiency after OPCAB. Fewer grafts tend to be performed with OPCAB than with standard CABG. Length of hospital stay, mortality rate, and long-term neurological function and cardiac outcome appear to be similar in the 2 groups. To definitively answer the remaining questions of whether either strategy is superior and in which patients, a large-scale prospective randomized trial is required.
