Background Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) without cardiopulmonary bypass (off-pump CABG) may reduce severe adverse events including stroke. Methods In the German Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting in Elderly patients trial, the rate of major adverse cardiovascular events was compared in 2,394 elderly (≥ 75 years) patients undergoing CABG with (on-pump) or without (off-pump) cardiopulmonary bypass. This exploratory post-hoc analysis investigated the impact of surgical aortic manipulation on the rate of stroke. Results There was no significant difference in the rate of stroke within 30 days after surgery between both groups (off-pump: 2.2%; on-pump: 2.7%; odds ratio [OR]: 0.83 [0.5–1.38]; p = 0.47). Within the off-pump group, different degrees of aortic manipulation did not lead to significant different stroke rates (tangential clamping: 2.3%; OR 0.86 [0.46–1.60]; clampless device: 1.8%; OR 0.67 [0.26–1.75]; no aortic manipulation: 2.4%; OR 0.88 [0.37–2.14]). An aggregate analysis including more than 10,000 patients out of the four recent major trials also yielded comparable stroke rates for on- and off-pump CABG (off-pump: 1.4%; on-pump: 1.7%; OR 0.87 [0.64–1.20]). Conclusion Within recent prospective randomized multicenter trials off-pump CABG did not result in lower stroke rates. The possible intrinsic benefit of off-pump CABG may be offset by the complexity of the operative therapy as well as the multiple pathomechanisms involved in perioperative stroke.

Coronary artery bypass grafting techniques have been unchangeable for many years, whereas development and enhancement of myocardial protection methods in coronary bypass grafting for patients with ischemic heart disease are still actual issues of current coronary surgery. Coronary artery bypass grafting techniques include the traditional/conventional technique with cardiopulmonary bypass, aortic cross-clamping and cardioplegia, off-pump and on-pump beating heart coronary artery bypass grafting. Coronary artery bypass grafting with cardiopulmonary bypass and cardioplegia remains the most common method of coronary revascularization. However the cardiac arrest inevitably leads to global cardiac ischemia, and current cardioplegias do not prevent ischemic damage to the myocardium in all cases, especially in high-risk surgical patients. Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting allows preventing global myocardial ischemia (due to the constant native coronary blood-flow) and avoiding possible negative consequences of cardiopulmonary bypass use. The main limitations of this technique are associated with high risk of hemodynamic instability due to low cardiac output and systolic output caused by target arteries exposition. On-pump beating heart technique is a reasonable compromise between conventional on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting, cardioplegia and off-pump procedure. It is a safe and effective technique with outcomes that are equivalent or superior to the outcomes reported for conventional coronary artery bypass grafting in patients with unstable hemodynamics, low left ventricular ejection fraction and in high-risk patients. The literature review presents the results of on-pump beating heart coronary artery bypass grafting.

Objective To assess the feasibility of routine off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) and investigate risk factors for on-pump conversion. Methods Between July 1, 2002, and June 30, 2004, OPCAB was attempted for all patients who required isolated coronary artery bypass in our institution. The perioperative results of patients were prospectively entered into a structured database, and the results were analyzed to identify the risks of requirement for cardiopulmonary bypass. Results Off-pump coronary artery bypass was successfully performed in all but 9 patients, giving an OPCAB success rate of 97.3% (329/338). The reason for cardiopulmonary bypass was hemodynamic instability occurring during reoperative surgery in 7, and cardiogenic shock in 2. The OPCAB success rate was significantly higher in primary coronary artery bypass grafting (99.3%, 314/316) than in reoperative coronary artery bypass grafting (68.1%, 15/22; P < 0.0001), and higher in patients without cardiogenic shock (97.9%, 329/336) than in those with cardiogenic shock (0%, 0/2; P < 0.0005). Mean number of distal anastomoses performed under OPCAB was 3.5 ± 1.4. There were 2 hospital deaths (0.6%). During a mean follow-up period of 1.0 ± 0.4 years, 7 patients developed angina, which was treated with catheter intervention; there were no other cardiac events. Conclusion Routine OPCAB is feasible with acceptable short-term results. Patients undergoing reoperation or in persistent cardiogenic shock are more likely to require conversion to on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting.

<p><strong>Aim.</strong> The issues of safety of off-pump myocardial revascularization in patients with severe ischemic mitral regurgitation remain insufficiently studied. Control of transport and oxygen consumption allows one to assess some of the safety aspects of this technique. The study was designed to evaluate the safety of myocardial revascularization without cardiopulmonary bypass in a combined operation for patients with ischemic mitral regurgitation and a similar operation under cardiopulmonary bypass and cardioplegia by assessment of the main parameters of transport and oxygen consumption.<br /><strong>Methods.</strong> Forty-two adult patients scheduled for elective coronary artery bypass grafting in combination with mitral annuloplasty were randomized into two groups: off-pump (22 patients) and on-pump (20 patients). In the off-pump group, coronary artery bypass grafting was performed on a beating heart without cardiopulmonary bypass, whereas in the on-pump group it was conventional coronary artery bypass grafting on a cardiopulmonary bypass with cardiac arrest. The coronary artery bypass grafting stage was performed before intervention on the mitral valve.<br /><strong>Results.</strong> On completion of the coronary artery bypass grafting stage, the cardiac index, the oxygen delivery index and the blood lactate level in the off-pump group were lower than those in the on-pump group by 20%, 17% and 100% (p = 0.01, 0.02, 0.003), respectively, while the consumption index and oxygen extraction were higher by 17% and 94% (p = 0.016 and 0.0001), respectively. In the off-pump group, the oxygen consumption index remained stable at all stages of the operation and the C-reactive protein level tended to decrease between 10–14 days after surgery (p = 0.13).<br /><strong>Conclusion.</strong> Implementation of off-pump coronary surgery in a combined operation for patients with ischemic mitral regurgitation does not lead to disruption of transport and oxygen consumption, does not exacerbate the systemic inflammatory response and can be considered a safe method for this category of patients.</p><p>Received 5 April 2017.
