Methods：We analyzed eGFR in the patients with coronary artery disease confirmed by coronary angiography and the control, and compared the proportion of patients with reduced renal function in the different groups. Results: A total 116 cases were included in each group. Among these patients, normal renal function, mildly and severe reduced renal function was documented in 82, 29 and 5 in coronary artery disease group, and in 98, 13 and 5 in the control group, respectively. In comparison to the control, more patients with reduced eGFR were found in coronary artery disease group (χ2 value 7.517,P=0.023), although no significant difference was observed between both groups（Pgt;0.05). Conclusion: Reduced eGFR, even if mildly, could be regarded as the risk factor of coronary artery disease.
Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of coronary artery bypass grafting in the treatment of coronary artery disease patients aged over 70 years. Methods A total of 160 patients with coronary atherosclerotic heart disease underwent off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting from January 2013 to December 2017. There were 94 males and 66 females at age of 70–85 (76.67±2.33) years. Operations were performed by using sternal median incision with the assistance of local myocardial surface fixator and shunt plug, and the saphenous vein and internal mammary arterywere used as grafted vessels. Results All the patients were received successful off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting without death, and the cardiac function improved significantly. There were 62 patients with the internal mammary artery bridge and 98 patients with the whole vein bridge. All the patients were followed-up for 1 to 4 years. All the patients had obvious relief of angina pectoris. Conclusion Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting for the treatment of elderly patients with coronary heart disease is an effective and safe operation, especially for patients with renal insufficiency, cerebrovascular disease, respiratory disease and severe left ventricular dysfunction.
Minimally invasive cardiac surgeries are the trend in the future. Among them, robotic cardiac surgery is the latest iteration with several key-hole incision, 3-dimentional visualization, and articulated instrumentation of 7 degree of ergonomic freedom for those complex procedures in the heart. In particular, robotic mitral valve surgery, as well as coronary artery bypass grafting, has evolved over the last decade and become the preferred method at certain specialized centers worldwide because of excellent results. Other cardiac procedures are in various stages of evolution. Stepwise innovation of robotic technology will continue to make robotic operations simpler, more efficient, and less invasive, which will encourage more surgeons to take up this technology and extend the benefits of robotic surgery to a larger patient population.
Patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) belong to the very high-risk group of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Although CABG gets advantages in relieving symptoms and improving long-term outcomes, a significant risk of cardiovascular adverse events after surgery still exists and standardized secondary prevention is needed. Lipid management plays a critical role as a secondary preventive strategy in CABG. However, lipid management of CABG patients in real clinical setting is inadequate, including lack of standardized lipid-lowering strategy, low goal attainment rate, as well as poor long-term medication adherence. In recent years, a series of clinical trials have provided a lot of groundbreaking new evidence for lipid management in patients with cardiovascular diseases which offers new strategies together with objectives of lipid-lowering and comprehensive management for patients undergoing CABG. This article reviews the strategy and research progress of lipid management after CABG, aiming to provide objective reference for clinical treatment.
Objective To summarize the treatment outcomes of antegrade sequential anastomosis of great saphenous veins in off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting for coronary atherosclerotic heart disease. Methods A total of 116 patients with coronary atherosclerotic heart diseases underwent off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting from January 2013 to June 2015 in our hospital. There were 63 males and 53 females with a mean age of 42–80 (64.26±9.67) years. Left internal mammary artery was anastomosed to left anterior descending artery. The rest of the target vessels received antegrade sequential anastomosis of great saphenous veins with the order of proximal ascending aorta, diagonal branch, circumflex branch, obtuse marginal branch, left ventricular branch and posterior descending artery. Results All patients were performed off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting successfully without death or perioperative myocardial infarction. A total of 436 grafts were adopted with 3.75±0.53 in each patient. Three patients suffered low cardiac output syndrome, and were cured after administration of vasoactive drugs combined with the intra-aortic balloon pump. One patient suffered tardive pericardial tamponade and one acute renal failure, who were cured with disappearance of angina symptoms and increase of activities without discomfort. Conclusion Antegrade sequential anastomosis, as a safe and effective method, can reduce aortic stoma, save the length of grafts, shorten operative time and quickly restorate blood supply of myocardium in off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting.
ObjectiveTo investigate surgical treatment strategies for diffuse coronary artery disease (CAD). MethodsFrom January 2003 to June 2013, 92 patients with diffuse CAD received complete coronary revascularization including coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG)and coronary endarterectomy (CE)in the First Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University. There were 63 male and 29 female patients with their age of 52-81 (68.7±10.5)years. After CE and during follow-up, coronary CT angiography (CTA)was used to assess graft patency, and improvement of patients' cardiac function and angina symptoms were observed. ResultsTarget vessel diameter of the 92 patients was all larger than 1.5 mm after CE. Sixty-three patients (with 69 CE grafts)received intraoperative graft blood flow measurement, showing 59 grafts (85.5%)with satisfactory blood flow[blood flow 13-42 (23.4±12.7)ml/min, pulsatility index (PI)1.6-4.2 (2.1±1.1)]. Six patients (6.5%)had perioperative myocardial infarction (MI), and 4 patients (4.3%)died within 30 days after surgery including 2 patients with acute MI and cardiogenic shock, 1 patient with low cardiac output syndrome and multiple organ failure, and 1 patient with massive cerebral infarction. Seventy-three patients (83%)were followed up for 6-108 (49.3±26.7)months after discharge, and 15 patients were lost during follow-up. During follow-up, coronary CTA showed graft patency of 83.9% after CE. Four patients (5.5%)died including 1 patient with heart failure and pulmonary infection, 1 patient of unexplained sudden death, 1 patient with cerebral hemorrhage, and 1 patient with lung cancer. Five-year survival rate was 87% after CE. Six months after CE, ejection fraction (EF)was significantly higher than preo-perative EF (55.6%±9.7% vs. 50.2%±10.5%, P < 0.05), patients' cardiac function significantly improved, and their angina symptoms were significantly relieved. ConclusionCABG with CE can improve coronary revascularization for patients with diffuse CAD, and short-and long-term results are satisfactory.
ObjectiveTo study the learning curve of minimal invasive coronary artery bypass grafting (MICS CABG) and the influence on the perioperative clinical effects by analyzing operation time.MethodsFrom March 2012 to November 2020, 212 patients underwent MICS CABG by the same surgeon. Among them, 59 patients (52 males and average age of 62.89±8.27 years) with single vessel bypass grafting were as a single-vessel group and 153 patients (138 males, average age of 59.80±9.22 years) with multi-vessel bypass grafting were as a multi-vessel group. Two sets of operation time-operation sequence scatter plots were made and learning curve was analyzed by cumulative summation (CUSUM) and regression method of operation time. The surgical data of each group before and after the inflection point of the learning curve were compared with the main clinical outcome events within 30 days after surgery.ResultsThere was no death, perioperative myocardial infarction and stroke in 212 MICS CABG patients and no transfer to cardiopulmonary bypass or redo thoracotomy. The learning curve conformed to the cubic fitting formula. In the single-vessel group, CUSUM (x operation number)=–1.93+93.45×x–2.33×x2+0.01×x3, P=0.000, R2=0.986, the tipping point was 27 patients. In the multi-vessel group, CUSUM (x)=y=2.87+1.15×x–1.29× x2+3.463×x3, P=0.000, R2=0.993, and the tipping point was 59 patients. The two sets of case data were compared before and after the learning curve and there was no statistical difference in main clinical outcomes within 30 days (mortality, acute myocardial infarction, stroke, perioperative blood transfusion rate), ventilator tube, and intensive care unit retention.ConclusionThe learning curve of MICS CABG conforms to the cubic formula, and the process transitions from single to multiple vessels bypass. To enter the mature stage of the learning phase, a certain number of patients need to be done. Reasonable surgical procedures and quality control measures can ensure the safety during the learning phase.
ObjectiveTo analyze the risk factors of new-onset postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).MethodsFrom September 2011 to October 2013, 1 614 consecutive patients underwent elective coronary artery bypass grafting in Fuwai Hospital. There were 1 281 males and 333 females at average age of 60.3±8.4 years. Holter data recorded for 5 days after operation were collected and analyzed. The risk factors associated with POAF were assessed according to the baseline and intraoperative data, and the positive variables were stratified.ResultsA total of 314 patients (19.5%) developed new-onset POAF. The rate of POAF was elevating with the increase of age (P<0.001).ConclusionAge was an independent risk factor for POAF in patients undergoing elective CABG alone.
