Ticagrelor DAPT Linked to Lower Risk for Vein Graft Failure in CABG
But addition of ticagrelor linked to increased risk for BARC type 2, 3, or 5 bleeding events versus aspirin
Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting Feasible in Patients Over 80
Procedure extends long-term survival but carries surgical risks
No Long-Term Advantage Seen for Off-Pump Versus On-Pump CABG
Time to all-cause death or repeated revascularization shorter with off-pump versus on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting
Troponin Levels and Mortality After Cardiac Surgery Examined
Cardiac troponin levels linked to increased risk for 30-day mortality substantially higher than thresholds cited for periprocedural myocardial injury
ECG-Based Algorithm Predicts Long-Term Survival After Cardiac Surgery
Findings seen among patients with left ventricular ejection fraction >35 percent undergoing valve and/or coronary bypass surgery
FFR-Guided PCI Not Noninferior to CABG in Three-Vessel CAD
Findings not consistent with prespecified noninferiority of fractional flow reserve-guided percutaneous coronary intervention
Women Less Likely to Undergo Guideline-Concordant CABG
Women have lower odds of receiving LIMA graft to the LAD artery, undergoing complete vascularization, receiving multi-arterial grafting
2003 to 2016 Saw Changes in Characteristics of PCI, CABG Patients
PCI, CABG for Left Main CAD Have Similar Five-Year Outcomes
