Medication— several medications are usually given early on in the treatment of heart attack, including beta blockers and statins. Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery— CABG (pronounced like “cabbage”) means a surgeon takes a blood vessel from somewhere else in your body and uses it...
CCTA could also be used to assess the disease progression of native nongrafted vessels in patients with recurrent angina after CABG. Although these segments are often massively calcified and challenging to assess with CCTA, several studies, such as that of de Graaf et al., showed acceptable ...
As coronary angiography revealed triple vessel disease, and due to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and moderate-to-severe aortic stenosis, the patient was deemed a high-risk candidate for Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG). Initial attempts to address heavily calcified lesions in the...
The mean in-hospital MACCE rate was 1.3% [+ or -] 1.9% (range: from 0,0% to 5.6%) with relatively high MACCE rates shown by Katz et al. Hybrid coronary revascularization as a safe, feasible, and viable alternative to conventional coronary artery bypass grafting: what is the current ...
However, some studies suggest that there is also a transient orthostatic decrease in mean pressure that can lead to pre-syncope in some individuals.69,72,73 This finding again indicates that there is likely some autonomic dysfunction as a result of cannabis use. Finally, Aronow and Cassidy ...

(27), which was a large non-randomized observational data from The Society of Thoracic Surgeons and the American College of Cardiology Foundation registries to evaluate effectiveness of revascularization with CABG compared to PCI. This too showed a benefit for CABG with a 4-year mortality of 16.4...
The recent SYNTAX II trial (5) is a new milestone in the approach to 3VD. This trial does not have the purpose of posing PCI against CABG, rather, it compares all the currently available techniques for the so-called “state-of-the-art” PCI and analyses the improvement of PCI over tim...
