ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the difference of adverse events in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) who underwent on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (ONCABG) and off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG).Methods:The clinical data of COPD patients undergoing CABG surgery admitted to Beijing Anzhen Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University from January 2021 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. According to whether they received cardiopulmonary bypass or not, they were divided into ONCABG group (64 cases) and OPCABG group (154 cases). The preoperative and postoperative clinical data were analyzed. The whole group was divided into 4 subgroups (ON1、ON2、OP1、OP2) according to whether receiving cardiopulmonary bypass or not and FEV160% as the cut-off point, to investigate the difference of postoperative adverse events.Results:A total of 218 patients were included, ranging in age from 45 to 76 years old, with a mean age of (63.81±7.72) years, including 149 males (68.35%). There was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative adverse events between the ONCABG and OPCABG groups ( P>0.05). In subgroup analysis, the incidence of postoperative pulmonary infection (72.73% vs. 45.65%, P<0.05) and postoperative atrial fibrillation (59.09% vs. 32.61%, P<0.05) was higher in ON1 (FEV1≤60% ONCABG, 22 cases) group than in OP1 (FEV1≤60% OPCABG, 46 cases) group. Conclusion:The incidence of postoperative pulmonary infection and atrial fibrillation in COPD patients with FEV1≤60% was higher in ONCABG than in OPCABG.
ABSTRACT
Background: Throughout any surgical procedure, the immune system is generally activated as a physiological response to the surgical trauma. Cardiopulmonary bypass can trigger the inflammatory response in three ways: direct contact activation of the immune system due to exposer of blood to foreign surfaces, ischaemia-reperfusion injury to vital organs as a result of aortic cross clamping, and splanchnic hypoperfusion. Objective: The aim of the study was to observe the acute phase response variables in Bangladeshi patients and to assess the acute phase response and morbidity of the patients after prolonged bypass surgery.Methods:This cross sectional study was conducted in the Department of Cardiac Surgery, BSMMU from January 2009 to December 2010. Fifty patients were selected for the study and were divided into 2 groups on the basis of cardiopulmonary bypass time. Group I was cardiopulmonary bypass time less than 90 minutes and Group II was more than 90 minutes. Data were stored and analyzed with standard computer software (SPSS-15). P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results:The mean duration of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) time (55.76�.8 in group I, 131�.35 in group II; P<0.001) and Aortic cross clamp time (28.48�31 in group I, 83.48�.99 in group II; P<0.001) was higher in group II than group I. Analysis of outcome variables showed that mean postoperative ventilation time was 6.24�20 in group I and 9.16�33 in group II. There was significant difference in the ventilation time between two groups (P<0.001). This study showed that there is a definite relationship of wound infection with the prolonged cardiopulmonary bypass time (P<0.001) and also persistently rising CRP increases the chance of wound infection.Conclusions:We may conclude that prolonged cardiopulmonary bypass time is associated with increased acute phase response and morbidity of Bangladeshi patients.
ABSTRACT
Protamine is a routinely used safe antidote for heparin reversal in cardiovascular surgeries. Protamine was first introduced to prolong the action of insulin preparations. As protamine interacts with platelets and fibrinogen and has an anticoagulant effect of its own, minimal amount is given to neutralize heparin present in plasma. Although infrequent, protamine is associated with serious adverse drug reactions (ADRs), especially in patients with previous history of protamine hypersensitivity. Here, we report a case of protamine-induced pulmonary arterial hypertension and peripheral vascular collapse in a 60-year-old diabetic male patient who had undergone on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting in a tertiary care center. This was a definite, nonpreventable, severe ADR as per causality, preventability, and severity assessment scale. This patient had no previous history of protamine hypersensitivity and was not on any insulin preparations. Despite precise timely treatment and other resuscitative measures, the patient expired subsequent to these ADRs. This case report throws light on the grave requirement in urgent evolvement of pharmacogenetic and pharmacokinetic tools to detect patients who are at risk of precipitating these ADRs and thus to take precautions to prevent them
ABSTRACT
Off-pump coronary artery bypass grating (OPCAB) is a standard procedure in Japan. This widespread use of OPCAB in Japan is supported by a number of studies that have been performed in the Japanese population, although most of these studies are retrospective singleinstitutions. Several clinical trials have been conducted worldwide and have demonstrated no benefit of OPCAB over traditional CABG with respect to these outcomes. Ultimately, OPCAB is associated with less effective myocardial revascularization and does not entirely prevent complications traditionally associated with cardiopulmonary bypass. Even so, OPCAB may improve operative outcomes by reducing the rates of perioperative myocardial injury, stroke, neurocognitive impairment, and cardiac-related mortality for elderly high-risk patients with co-morbidities. We will continue to polish this effective procedure in an aging society.
ABSTRACT
@#Objective To analyze the safety and follow-up results of on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) for the treatment of multivessel diseases via left anterolateral minithoracotomy. Methods From January 2018 to March 2020, a total of 30 patients including 18 males and 12 females with an average age of 61.3±7.5 years having multivessel coronary heart diseases were treated in our hospital with on-pump CABG via left anterolateral minithoracotomy. Among them, 14 patients had three-vessel diseases and 16 patients had two-vessel diseases. Results There were 29 internal mammary artery-to-left anterior descending bypass grafts harvested in total while the rest were saphenous-vein bypass grafts. The average number of bypass vessels was 2.3±0.5. There was no perioperative death in the whole group, one patient underwent rethoracotomy due to hemorrhage, and one patient suffered acute renal insufficiency. The average time of postoperative tracheal intubation was 16.0±5.8 hours, and the postoperative ICU stay was 30.1±11.5 hours. Twenty five patients were followed up, including coronary CT angiography examinations at 6 months and 1 year after operation. Proximal anastomotic stenosis in one patient and distal anastomosis occlusion in one patient occurred. Conclusion On-pump CABG via left anterolateral minithoracotomy is safe for appropriately selected patients.
ABSTRACT
@#Objective To explore the difference of myocardial injury between off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) and modified perfusion on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (ONCAB). Methods A total of 558 patients who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting in Beijing Anzhen Hospital from 2017 to 2019 were included. According to whether or not they received modified perfusion cardiopulmonary bypass, all the 558 patients were divided into two groups including an OPCAB group (OP group) and an ONCAB group (ON group). There were 465 patients in the OP group including 282 males and 183 females with an average age of 63.58±7.87 years. In the ON group, there were 93 patients including 64 males and 29 females with an average age of 63.91±7.51 years. Creatine kinase MB (CK-MB) and cardiac specific troponin I (cTnI) were measured 24 hours before operation, 30 minutes after operation, 12 hours after operation, 36 hours after operation and 48 hours after operation. Results No perioperative death occurred in all patients. CK-MB (5.00 ng/mL vs. 8.60 ng/mL, Z=–2.189, P=0.029) and cTnI (3.00 ng/mL vs. 7.80 ng/mL, Z=–5.307, P=0.000) in postoperative 12 hours in the ON group were less than those in the OP group. CK-MB (5.00 ng/mL vs. 5.60 ng/mL, Z=–2.280, P=0.023) and cTnI (0.10 ng/mL vs. 1.02 ng/mL, Z=–6.418, P=0.000) in postoperative 36 hours in the ON group were less than those in the OP group. cTnI (0.07 ng/mL vs. 0.81 ng/mL, Z=–1.946, P=0.032) in postoperative 48 hours in the ON group was less than that in the OP group. Conclusion Compared with OPCAB, modified perfusion ONCAB has less myocardial damage.
ABSTRACT
Data on isolated coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) performed in 2017 and 2018, and registered in the Japan Cardiovascular Surgery Database were reviewed for preoperative characteristics, postoperative outcomes, and choice of graft material for the left anterior descending artery (LAD). Isolated CABG was performed off-pump in 54.6% (n＝14,684) of all CABG cases (n＝26,913), and graft material for the LAD was left internal thoracic artery in 76.4% and right internal thoracic artery in 19.0%. Operative mortality was 1.5% in elective cases (On-pump CABG : ONCAB 1.9%, off-pump CABG : OPCAB 1.2%, p＜0.001), 7.4% in emergency cases (ONCAB 10.2%, OPCAB 4.3%, p＜0.001), and 2.5% overall. Postoperative morbidity was low in almost all aspects in OPCAB, and average JapanSCORE II is elevating every year. Overall short-term operative results for isolated CABG is stable, and operative candidates are shifting to higher-risk patients.
ABSTRACT
@#Objective To explore the factors affecting the operation of coronary artery bypass grafting with heart beating and improve the effect of the operation. Methods From January 2012 to June 2016, 898 patients with coronary heart disease who received cardiovascular surgery in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Jilin University were analyzed retrospectively. All patients only underwent coronary artery bypass grafting with beating heart. Among them, 797 patients underwent the off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (an OPCABG group, 592 males and 205 females, with an average age of 60.5±8.4 years); another 101 patients received on-pump beating heart coronary artery bypass grafting (an OPBH group, 77 males and 24 females, with an average age of 61.5±8.2 years). Results The average number of grafts in the OPCABG group was 3.36±0.74, and in the OPBH group was 3.71±0.69 (P<0.05). The postoperative ventilation time (10.8±9.5 hvs. 20.6±12.3 h), ICU stay (28.8±15.5 h vs. 37.4±30.8 h), hospital stay (10.9±4.8 d vs. 14.8±8.6 d), mortality (1.1% vs. 3.0%), the utilization rate of intra-aortic balloon pump (2.4% vs. 8.9%) and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (0.5% vs. 5.0%) were significantly different between the OPCABG group and OPBH group (all P<0.05). Twelve patients died after surgery, and the total bloodless operation ratio was 91.3%. Conclusion The results show that most patients can achieve good results with the help of apical fixation and myocardial fixator, improved surgical techniques and methods, good anesthesia management as well as flexible and accurate use of vasoactive drugs. But extracorporeal circulation is necessary in the patients with large left ventricle, low ejection fraction and hemodynamic instability after intraoperatively moving the heart.
ABSTRACT
We reviewed the data of the isolated coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) procedures performed in 2015 and 2016, as registered in the Japan Cardiovascular Surgery Database, for preoperative characteristics, surgical outcomes, and the choice of graft material used for the left anterior descending artery (LAD). Isolated CABG was performed off-pump in 55.0% (n = 16,173) of all CABG cases (n = 29,392). The left internal thoracic artery and the right internal thoracic artery were used as the graft materials in 72.1 and 17.4% cases respectively. The operative mortality rates remained unchanged since the last report, with 1.7% for elective cases, 8.8% for emergency cases, and 3.0% overall. In elective cases, the operative mortality rate was 1.1% for off-pump CABG (OPCAB) compared with 2.5% for on-pump CABG. The morbidity rates for all OPCAB cases were significantly better except for those falling in the ‘readmission ＜30 days’ group.
ABSTRACT
Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) has been a standard revascularization method for three-vessel disease and left main coronary artery disease since its development in the 1950s. In recent years, with the development of basic research, clinical diagnosis, surgical instruments, and interdisciplinary work, significant progress has been made in the surgical approaches, saphenous vein graft harvesting, and secondary prevention during the perioperative period. This article reviews the surgical methods of coronary artery bypass grafting, the development status and hot issues of perioperative secondary prevention.
ABSTRACT
Introdução: A cirurgia de revascularização do miocárdio (CRM) sem a parada cardíaca e sem o uso de circulação extracorpórea (CEC), pode reduzir o número de complicações relacionadas à técnica tradicionalmente executada, utilizando a CEC. Objetivo: Comparar os resultados iniciais em grupos de pacientes submetidos à cirurgia de revascularização do miocárdio com e sem circulação extracorpórea. Método: Estudo observacional transversal retrospectivo, com 183 pacientes submetidos à CRM com CEC e sem CEC, operados entre janeiro de 2009 e janeiro de 2013. As variáveis qualitativas foram descritas em frequências absolutas e relativas, enquanto as variáveis quantitativas, em médias e desvios-padrão. Os testes qui-quadrado ou prova exata de Fischer foram utilizados para testar a homogeneidade de proporções. Resultados: A idade média foi de 61,13 ± 8,45 anos no grupo com CEC e 61,41 ± 9,49 anos no grupo sem CEC. A maior parte dos procedimentos foi realizada em pacientes sexo masculino (64,44% e 74,19% nos grupos com CEC e sem CEC, respectivamente). Houve predomínio no grupo sem CEC na história de intervenção coronariana percutânea (p=0,029), uso prévio de antiagregantes (p=0,006) no grupo com CEC, e número de artérias acometidas com predomínio monoarterial no grupo sem CEC (p<0,001) e triarterial no grupo com CEC (p<0,001). Não houve diferença significativa entre os grupos no tempo de internação em UTI, internação hospitalar, complicações intra-hospitalares e número de óbitos. Conclusão: A cirurgia de revascularização sem CEC não demonstrou resultados superiores de morbi-mortalidade inicial em relação aos pacientes submetidos à cirurgia com CEC, indicando que ambas as técnicas são igualmente eficientes e seguras.
Coronary-artery bypass grafting (CABG) performed without cardiopulmonary bypass (off-pump CABG), might reduce the number of complications as compared with CABG performed with the use of cardiopulmonary bypass (on-pump CABG). Objective: To compare the early clinical outcomes in patients scheduled for elective CABG of either on-pump or off-pump procedures. Methods: We selected 183 patients in a observational transversal retrospective study, from January 2009 through to January 2013. Qualitative variables were described as absolute and relative frequencies, while quantitative variables as means and standard deviations. The chi-square or Fischer exact test were used to test the homogeneity of proportions. Results: The mean age was 61.13±8.45 years for on-pump group and 61.41±9.49 years for off-pump group. There was dominance for male patients (64.44% and 74.19% for on-pump and off-pump procedures, respectively). There was significant difference in previous percutaneous coronary intervention (p=0.029) in Control group, use of antiplatelet agent before surgery (p=0.006) on Case group and number of diseased vessels, one-vessel for Control group (p<0.001) and three-vessels for Case group (p<0.001). Conclusions: Coronary-artery bypass grafting performed without cardiopulmonary bypass did not show superior results of initial morbidity and mortality compared to patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass, indicating that both techniques are equally efficient and safe.
ABSTRACT
The aim of this study was to analyze if off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) is associated with better treatment outcomes in elderly patients (>70 years of age) than on-pump CABG, using meta-analysis. Medline, PubMed, Cochrane and Google Scholar databases were searched until September 13, 2016. Sensitivity and quality assessment were performed. Twenty-two studies, three randomized control trials (RCTs) and 20 non-RCTs were included with 24,127 patients. The risk of death associated with on-pump or off-pump CABG in the RCTs were similar (pooled OR=0.945, 95%CI=0.652 to 1.371, P=0.766). However, in the non-RCTs, mortality risk was lower in patients treated with off-pump CABG than on-pump CABG (pooled OR=0.631, 95%CI=0.587 to 0.944, P=0.003). No differences were observed between the two treatment groups in terms of the occurrence of 30-day post-operative stroke or myocardial infarction (P≥0.147). In the non-RCTs, off-pump CABG treatment was associated with a shorter length of hospital stay (pooled standardized difference in means=-0.401, 95%CI=-0.621 to -0.181, P≤0.001). The meta-analysis with pooled data from non-RCTs, but not RCTs, found that mortality was lower with off-pump compared with on-pump CABG, and suggested that there may be some benefit of off-pump CABG compared with on-pump CABG in the risk of mortality and length of hospital stay.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) in patients with on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (ONCAB). Methods The clinical data of 200 patients with ONCAB were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into POAF group (n=52) and non POAF group (n=148) according to the occurrence of POAF after operation. The perioperative data including age and gender of all patients were collected and analyzed. The index of opinion of statistical results was classified by two categories Logistic regression analysis, and the related risk factors of POAF were analyzed. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves of the age, red blood cell (RBC), left atrial diameter (LAD) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were analyzed in two groups. Results The incidence rate of POAF was 26%, mostly occurred in the postoperative period from 1 d to 3 d. Compared with non POAF group, the age, the proportion of patients with age≥62.5 years or older, the proportion of patients with LAD≥35 mm, left ventricular end-diastolic diameter and perioperative transfusion of RBC were increased in POAF group, and data of mechanical ventilation time, ICU stay time and hospitalization time were prolonged, but the LVEF level decrease ( P<0.05). Among them, the elderly (≥62.5 years), increased LAD (≥35 mm), the higher perioperative transmission amount of RBC were the independent risk factors of POAF after ONCAB, and the higher LVEF was a protective factor for ONCAB. The optimal thresholds for age, RBC, LAD and LVEF were 62.5 years, 1U, 35.5 mm, and 0.34. Conclusion The occurrence of POAF after ONCAB is related with age (≥62.5 years old),LAD≥35 mm and perioperative transfusion of RBC, which can be used as clinically to predict the occurrence of POAF.
ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the long-term complications of off-pump and on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting. Methods CNKI, WanFang Data, VIP, PubMed, EMBASE and the Cochrane Central Register were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of long-term complications of off-pump and on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting. According to the Cochrane system evaluation method, the quality of the research literature was evaluated by the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and the RevMan5.2 software was used for meta analysis. Results A total of 9 studies were included, including 11 660 patients, 5 794 patients in the OPCABG group and 5 866 cases in the ONCABG group. There was no significant difference in mortality between the OPCABG group and the ONCABG group (OR=1.10, 95%CI:0.94-1.30,P=0.22] and no significant difference in myocardial infarction (OR=0.90, 95%CI:0.76-1.06,P=0.21). However, the difference in revascularization was statistically significant between the two groups (OR=1.41, 95%CI:1.09-1.83,P=0.009). The long-term incidence of stroke was significantly lower in OPCABG group than that of ONCABG group (OR=0.75, 95%CI: 0.57-0.98,P=0.04]. Conclusion The on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting can effectively reduce the occurrence of long-term revascularization. However, off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting can effectively reduce the risks of stroke.
ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG) procedures can avoid the complications of an on-pump bypass. However, some cases unexpectedly require conversion to cardiopulmonary bypass during OPCABG. The risk factors associated with a sudden need for cardiopulmonary bypass were analyzed. METHODS: This retrospective study included 283 subjects scheduled for OPCABG from 2001 to 2010. These were divided into an OPCABG group and an on-pump conversion group. Preoperative, operative, and postoperative variables were compared between the 2 groups. RESULTS: Of the 283 patients scheduled for OPCABG, 47 (16%) were switched to on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). The mortality of the both the OPCABG and on-pump conversion groups was not significantly different. The major risk factors for conversion to on-pump CABG were congestive heart failure (CHF) (odds ratio [OR], 3.5; p=0.029), ejection fraction (EF) <35% (OR, 4.4; p=0.012), and preoperative beta-blocker (BB) administration (OR, 0.3; p=0.007). The use of intraoperative (p=0.007) and postoperative (p=0.021) inotropics was significantly higher in the conversion group. The amount of postoperative drainage (p<0.001) and transfusion (p<0.001) also was significantly higher in the conversion group. There were no significant differences in stroke or cardiovascular complications between the groups over the course of short-term and long-term follow-up. CONCLUSION: Patients who undergo OPCABG and have CHF or a lower EF (<35%) are more likely to undergo on-pump conversion, while preoperative BB administration could help prevent conversions from OPCABG to on-pump CABG.

ABSTRACT
Objective: To compare the early and long-term outcomes between on-pump and off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in elder female patients. Methods: A total of 763 female patients elder than 65 years of age received isolated CABG in our hospital from 1999-01 to 2008-12 were retrospectively studied. The patients were divided into 2 groups according to operational method: On-pump group,n=331 and Off-pump group,n=432. The mortality at 30 days post-operation, in-hospital clinical indexes and long term mortality with MACCE as all cause death, myocardial infarction (MI), stroke and repeated revascularization were compared between 2 groups. Results: Compared with On-pump group, the patients in Off-pump group had the elder age (P24h mechanical ventilation (P Conclusion: Off-pump CABG would reduce the mortality at 30 days post-operation, have less application of blood products, shorter post-operative mechanical ventilation, less early post-operative renal failure, pulmonary complications and re-exploration for bleeding. While it could not reduce the long-term mortality and MACCE occurrence.
ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: Myocardial revascularization in patients with renal insufficiency is challenging to the cardiac surgeon, irrespective of utilizing extracorporeal circulation. This study aimed to compare the number of bypass grafts and the mid-term results and to evaluate independent survival predictors in patients with renal insufficiency undergoing on-pump or off-pump myocardial revascularization. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed the data of 103 patients with renal insufficiency, who had isolated myocardial revascularization between January 1999 and January 2009. The patients were divided into two groups, the on-pump group and the off-pump group. RESULTS: The off-pump group received a significantly greater number of distal arterial grafts than the on-pump group. However, the mean number of total grafts, the degree of complete revascularization, and survival rate of the patients were not significantly different between the two groups. Multivariate analysis showed the independent predictors for reduced mid-term survival were the number of total grafts and postoperative periodic renal replacement therapy. Off-pump myocardial revascularization does not decrease the number of bypass grafts or influence on the mid-term results for patients with renal insufficiency, compared to on-pump myocardial revascularization. CONCLUSION: Myocardial revascularization with a large number of total grafts has a beneficial effect on survival in patients with renal insufficiency, irrespective of utilizing extracorporeal bypass.

Emergency coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is still associated with high mortality and morbidity, and early outcome is poor compared with outcome in patients with stable angina. The purpose of this study was to examine the clinical results of on-pump beating heart CABG vs. off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) for ACS patients. From a total of 432 CABG patients, we retrospectively analyzed 72 (16.7%) patients who underwent emergency CABG between 2004 and 2008. Emergency CABG cases were divided into 2 operative groups : an on-pump beating-heart CABG group (on, <i>n</i>=31) and an OPCAB group (off, <i>n</i>=41). A preoperative history of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), detection of troponin T, preoperative creatine phosphokinase (CPK) value, low ejection fraction, presence of mitral regurgitation (MR) (>II) and cardiomegaly were markedly higher in the on group. There were no statistically significant differences in intraoperative factors. In-hospital mortality was 3.2% (1 patient) in the on group and 7.3% (3 patients) in the off group. Furthermore, statistically significant differences were found between the 2 groups in incidence of all-cause morbidity (on=71.0% : off=41.5%, <i>p</i>=0.01), respiratory failure (on=58.1% : off=29.3%, <i>p</i>=0.01), ICU stay (on=6.5±4.6 days : off=4.1±3.2 days, <i>p</i>=0.01), and necessary inotropic support (on=51.6% : off=17.1%, <i>p</i>=0.02). Multivariate regression analysis of preoperative and intraoperative factors was performed to identify independent factors for in-hospital mortality and morbidity. On multivariate analysis of preoperative factors, only the pre-CPK value reached statistical significance as an independent factor for in-hospital mortality and morbidity.
ABSTRACT
Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) is associated with a significant morbidity and mortality and several factors have been identified as predictive of complications. These include renal dysfunction and in particular renal replacement therapy. More than 600,000 coronary artery graft procedures are performed annually in the United States. Of those patients with coronary arterial disease 10% patients undergo CABG surgery. To explore the association of renal function between off-pump and on-pump-CABG. To evaluate the degree of impairment of renal function in on-pump, 80 patients (off-pump group = 50, on-pump group = 30) who underwent CABG were recruited from cardiac surgery dept. of National Heart Foundation and Research Institute Mirpur Dhaka and National Institute of Cardiovascular Disease (NICVD). Subjects were selected according to exclusion and inclusion criteria. Purpose and procedure of the study were explained in detail and informed written consent was taken from the study subjects. All the information of the study subject including history, clinical finding were recorded in a preformed data sheet. Serum urea and creatinine were significantly higher in on-pump group patients 12 hours after CABG. Serum urea was significantly higher and serum creatinine was slightly in onpump group in comparison to off-pump group. The mean urea and creatinine were found significantly higher in on-pump group in comparison to off-pump group and CCr was slightly higher lower in on-pump but not significantly decreased.
