Objective Octogenarians, as the fastest growing stratum of the population and with the highest prevalence of coronary artery disease, are being increasingly referred for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). The general perception is that the presence of comorbidities and the propensity for neurological injury expose them to a higher risk for mortality and morbidity after conventional on-pump CABG, and therefore, off-pump CABG should be preferentially offered to octogenarians to improve outcomes. This study evaluates the in-hospital outcomes and predictors of mortality and stroke in octogenarians undergoing on- and off-pump CABG at our institution. Methods From January 2000 to December 2010, a total of 290 octogenarians underwent off-pump (n = 217) and on-pump (n = 73) CABG. Their data were prospectively entered into the cardiac surgery database (Patients Analysis & Tracking System; Dendrite Clinical Systems, Ltd, Oxford, England, United Kingdom) and analyzed retrospectively. Outcome measures included in-hospital mortality, major complications, and length of stay. Multivariate analysis was performed to identify predictors of combined outcome of in-hospital mortality and stroke. Results The mean ± SD age of the patients was 82 ± 2.0 years. Preoperative demographics were similar for the on-pump and off-pump groups. The patients who underwent off-pump CABG had a lower number of distal anastomoses performed compared with the patients who underwent on-pump CABG [mean difference, 0.2; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.02–0.4; P = 0.03]. However, the ratio of grafts (received/needed) was the same in both groups. In-hospital mortality for the entire cohort was 7.2%, with no significant difference between the groups for death (6.0% vs 11.0%; P = 0.08), stroke (2.8% vs 2.8%; P = 1.0), other major complications, and length of hospital stay. Independent predictors of combined outcome identified from the multiple logistic model included heart failure [odds ratio (OR), 4.4; 95% CI, 1.5–13.0; P = 0.008], diabetes (OR, 2.6; 95% CI, 1.0–6.0; P = 0.046), nitrate infusion (OR, 2.9; 95% CI, 1.1–8.0; P = 0.04), postoperative renal failure requiring hemofiltration (OR, 8.6; 95% CI, 3.5–21.1; P < 0.001), and postoperative ventricular arrhythmias (OR, 7.3; 95% CI, 1.9–27.8; P = 0.009). Conclusions Both on-pump and off-pump CABG are reasonable revascularization strategies in octogenarians. Careful patient selection and individualized treatment decisions can minimize postoperative mortality and morbidity in octogenarians undergoing on- and off-pump CABG.

Background: Octogenarians are being increasingly referred for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). However, there is a paucity of studies reporting impact of choice of surgical revascularization strategy on in-hospital mortality and mid-term survival of octogenarians. We evaluated our institutional experience to determine the impact of off-pump and on-pump CABG on in-hospital mortality and mid-term survival of octogenarians. Methods: We retrospectively analysed prospectively collected data from the Patients Analysis and Tracking System database (Dendrite Clinical Systems, Oxford, UK) for all isolated first-time CABG procedures with at least 2 grafts performed at our institution from January 2000 to September 2017. Over the study period, 566 octogenarians underwent either off-pump (N = 374) or on-pump CABG (N = 192). Short-term outcomes including in-hospital mortality as well as mid-term survival was compared for the two groups. Results: The two groups had similar preoperative demographics and mean number of distal anastomoses (off-pump: 2.7 ± 0.6 [median 3] vs on-pump: 2.7 ± 0.3 [median 3]; P=0.6). However, more bilateral internal mammary artery grafts were performed in the off-pump cohort compared to on-pump cohort (117 [31.3%] vs 22 [11.5%]; P <0.001). In-hospital mortality for the entire cohort was 5.7% with significantly fewer deaths in the off-pump cohort (4.3% vs 8.3%; P=0.04). The remaining in-hospital outcomes were similar. Kaplan-Meier survival at 1 year (89.7% vs 82.9%; P=0.048) and 5 year (71.1% vs 61.3%; P=0.038) was significantly better for the off-pump cohort. Conclusion: Octogenarians experience lower in-hospital mortality and improved mid-term survival after off-pump CABG compared to on-pump CABG.

Background: At a time when cost containment in health care is under increased scrutiny, coronary artery bypass grafting remains the most widely performed cardiac surgical procedure in the world. This study compares 30-day mortality, morbidity, and resource use for off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) versus conventional coronary artery bypass (CCAB) revascularization.Methods: From January 2000 through December 2008, 1003 patients underwent OPCAB grafting by a single surgeon (S.C.S.). Data were prospectively collected, entered into a Society of Thoracic Surgeons adult cardiac surgery database, and analyzed retrospectively. We used propensity-matching techniques to match this cohort to a group of 1003 patients who underwent CCAB.Results: The hospital mortality rate was lower for the OPCAB patients than for the CCAB patients: 2.0% (20/1003) versus 2.8% (28/1003). Predictors of hospital mortality for the entire cohort included age (P = .001), cardiogenic shock (P = .001), congestive heart failure (P = .019), history of myocardial infarction (P = .001), and reoperation (P = .007). The overall incidence of morbidity was lower for the OPCAB patients (reoperation for bleeding, P = .011; prolonged ventilation, P = .035; stroke, P = .045; cardiac arrest, P = .004). OPCAB patients experienced significantly reduced procedure times (P = .001), postoperative ventilation times (P = .035), post-operative lengths of stay (P = .035), and blood product use (intraoperative, P = .001; postoperative, P = .001).Conclusion: These outcomes clearly demonstrate that OPCAB is a safe and effective procedure for myocardial revascularization. This retrospective, nonrandomized observational study has shown that the patients who underwent OPCAB had reduced morbidity and mortality, as well as decreased resource use, compared with those who underwent CCAB.

Introduction Although it is not a new technique, minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (MIDCAB) is employed only by a few surgeons in the UK. We compared our experience with MIDCAB with that of single vessel off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) graft surgery through a standard median sternotomy. Methods Patients who underwent either MIDCAB or OPCAB between April 2008 and July 2011 were reviewed. Exclusion criteria included patients with an ejection fraction of <0.5 or previous cardiac surgery. Data were obtained retrospectively from our prospective database, medical records and through general practitioners. Results Overall, 74 patients were analysed in the MIDCAB group and 78 in the OPCAB group. Their demographics and EuroSCORE (European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation) values were comparable (p>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the two groups in terms of mortality, recurrent myocardial infarction, postoperative stroke, wound infection, atrial fibrillation or need for reintervention. The MIDCAB group had six conversions to a sternotomy. Eight patients in each group required blood transfusion, with the average transfusion being 1.8 units in the MIDCAB group and 3.2 units in the OPCAB group. The mean duration of ventilation and intensive care unit stay was 5.0 hours and 38.4 hours in the MIDCAB group and 5.4 and 47.8 hours in the OPCAB group. The mean hospital stay was significantly reduced in the MIDCAB population (6.1 vs 8.5 days, p<0.05). Conclusions MIDCAB can be performed safely in appropriately selected patients with outcomes comparable with OPCAB. The potential benefits include shorter hospital stay, reduced need for blood transfusion and faster recovery.

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.

Abstract Purpose Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is performed either with the aid of cardiopulmonary bypass (on-pump) or without cardiopulmonary bypass (off-pump). There is a scarcity of angiographic data to support the non-inferiority of off-pump technique to on-pump technique. The objective of this study is to ascertain the non-inferiority of off-pump CABG when compared to on-pump CABG in terms of angiographically assessed graft patency at 3 months. Methods A total of 320 patients with multivessel coronary artery disease were enrolled in a multicenter prospective randomized trial either to on-pump CABG (n = 162) or off-pump CABG (n = 158) between March 2016 through March 2017. Graft patency was evaluated by using either multidetector computerized tomographic angiography or conventional coronary angiography at 3 months. The major adverse cardiac and cardiovascular events (MACCE) were also analyzed at 3 months. Results The median number of grafts per patient in off-pump was 3.00 (Q1:3.00 and Q3:4.00) vs on-pump 4.00 (Q1:3.00 to Q3:4.00), and the mean number of grafts per patient was lower in the off-pump CABG at 3.45 ± 0.75 vs 3.64 ± 0.70 in the on-pump CABG (p = 0.01). There was no significant difference in mortality at 3 months between the off-pump (0.63%) and on-pump groups (1.85%) with p value of 0.62. The cumulative combined MACCE showed significant difference between off-pump group (0.63%) and on-pump group (5.55%), p = 0.01. Follow-up angiograms were done in 239 (75%) patients with 120 off-pump and 119 in the on-pump group. The analysis was also done regarding graft patency in a graded manner—when analysis of A (excellent) grafts vs B (stenosed) grafts and O (occluded) grafts were made, there was no statistically significant difference in overall graft patency at 3 months between on-pump [376 /429 grafts (87.6%)] and off-pump [366 /420 grafts (87.1%)] groups (p = 0.82). The patency rates were similar among bypass conduits (left internal thoracic artery (ITA) in off-pump (91.4%) vs on-pump (92.9%) p = 0.66, right ITA in off-pump (82.1%) vs on-pump (81.8%) p = 0.97, radial artery in off-pump (84.4%) vs on-pump (82.6%) p = 0.81; saphenous vein in off-pump (85.8%) vs on-pump (86.3%), p = 0.86 and among 3 coronary territories. Conclusions Off-pump CABG is non-inferior to on-pump CABG in terms of overall graft patency at 3 months and was associated with a fewer combined cumulative MACCE compared to on-pump CABG.

Background— Off-pump coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery is purported to reduce perioperative mortality and morbidity compared with on-pump coronary bypass graft surgery. However, the outcomes of patients for whom an off-pump strategy must be changed to an on-pump procedure during surgery have not been extensively studied. Methods and Results— The Merged Cardiac Registry (Health Data Research, Inc) contains 70 514 isolated CABG performed from January 1998 to March 2004 in 40 facilities. Among them, 62 634 patients begun and completed on-pump bypass (CPB); 7880 patients begun off-pump, of which 7424 (94.2%) completed off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB), whereas 456 (5.8%) were converted to on-pump (CONVERT). CONVERT patients were more severely ill. The observed mortality of CONVERT, CPB, and OPCAB was 9.9%, 3.0%, and 1.6%, respectively, and the observed-to-predicted ratio was 2.77, 1.20, and 0.74, respectively. CONVERT also had more morbidity than either OPCAB or CPB. Finally, a risk model was created to identify patients who might be at risk for conversion from off-pump to on-pump CABG. Conclusions— Patients who are intended for an off-pump strategy and then require conversion to on-pump have significantly higher operative mortality and morbidity than either completed OPCAB or CPB patients. In addition, the operative mortality and morbidity are far in excess of that predicted preoperatively. Based on these results, strong consideration should be given for a planned strategy of CPB for those patients with preoperative hemodynamic instability requiring a salvage CABG operation, left ventricular hypertrophy, or previous CABG.

Abstract Background Despite ample evidence of continued preoperative aspirin to improve outcomes in coronary artery bypass surgery, practice for routine continued preoperative aspirin use is still inconsistent due to concern for increased postoperative bleeding. The purpose of this study was to investigate preoperative aspirin use and its effect on postoperative bleeding after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG). Method This cohort study involved patients (n = 74) who underwent OPCABG at a single center between August 2017 to January 2018. After considering the inclusion and exclusion criteria, they were divided into two groups: one (n = 37) received tablet Aspirin 75mg till the day of surgery and for the other group (n = 37) aspirin was stopped 5 days before surgery. Postoperative bleeding was recorded in both groups. After considering preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative variables statistical analysis was done. Results There was no significant difference between the two groups concerning preoperative and peroperative variables. No significant difference was also observed between the two groups in chest tube drainage at 1sthour, 2ndhour, 3rdhour, 24thhour, next 24 hours (at 48th hour), and next 24 hours (at 72nd hour) (p = 0.845, 0.126, 0.568, 0.478, 0.342 and 0.717 respectively). No significant difference was seen in the transfusion requirement of blood and fresh frozen plasma (FFP). Conclusions Continuation of preoperative aspirin till the day of surgery is not associated with an increase in chest tube drainage, re-operation for bleeding complications, or transfusion of blood and FFP.
