“…Clearly, this should involve acting on recommendations to launch large RCTs of OPCAB and on-pump CABG surgery. 45 However, unlike trials of devices for which the results are unaffected by surgical skill, it will also be important to account for the expertise of surgeons and its interaction with choice of procedure.…”

“…An ever increasing number of retrospective studies and a few randomized studies have been published which clearly show the benefits of OPCAB. Most of these papers underscore the results on hospital mortality, the possibility of total revascularization using arterial conduits and the incidence of stroke, loss of cognitive function, impairment of renal function, less morbidity and shorter hospital stay, all of these results according to gender [6][7].…”

“…An ever increasing number of retrospective studies and a few randomized studies have been published which clearly show the benefits of OPCAB. Most of these papers underscore the results on hospital mortality, the possibility of total revascularization using arterial conduits and the incidence of stroke, loss of cognitive function, impairment of renal function, less morbidity and shorter hospital stay, all of these results according to gender [6][7].A multicentric study of 17,969 patients undergoing offpump surgery from the database of the American Association for Thoracic Surgery (AATS) assessed retrospectively and by statistical analysis to obtain groups with comparable risk factors (with or without cardiopulmonary bypass), showed lower in-hospital mortality in the off-pump group undergoing total revascularization [8]. MACK et al, in a study of 7,283 patients undergoing off-pump coronary bypass, showed that the use of cardiopulmonary bypass in patients over 75 years of age was a predictor for greater risk of mortality (OR 2.13 CI 95% 1.20-3.76, p= 0.01) [9].…”

“…The use of the cardiopulmonary bypass is, however, believed by many cardiac surgeons to be associated with serious complications, including cognitive deficits, stroke, renal failure, and pulmonary dysfunction. 10 Off-pump surgery, which is performed on the beating heart without the use of the cardiopulmonary bypass, 11 was reintroduced in the late 1990s because many cardiac surgeons believed it may decrease the incidence of complications. 10 …”
