SMART Trial Longitudinal Follow-Up:Off-Pump Versus On-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Coronary Artery Disease

In brief

The purpose of this study is to determine completeness of revascularization, graft patency, clinical outcomes, health-related quality of life and costs in 200 initial trial participants at \> 5 years post surgery who had heart bypass surgery with heart-lung bypass (on-pump) or without heart-lung bypass (off-pump). The hypothesis is that the patency of coronary artery bypass grafts of off-pump surgery are no less durable than grafts from conventional on-pump surgery.
