The short-term effects of off-pump cardiopulmonary bypass graft surgery on cognitive performance
… study investigates the short-term effects of off-pump cardiopulmonary bypass graft surgery (OPCAB) on cognitive performance, as a possible safer alternative in the treatment of coronary artery disease. This research forms part of a larger study in which, in addition to the OPCAB procedure, the …

Outcomes of "off-pump" coronary artery bypass grafting in a developing country : advantages over coronary artery bypass grafting on cardiopulmonary bypass
Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) was developed to avoid the deleterious effects of CPB. Current literature reveals some peri-operative advantages of OPCAB, with few studies detailing these in Africa. We review our institutional experience with both approaches in higher risk patients …

The Effect of Tranexamic Acid on Transfusion Requirement in Dual Antiplatelet-Treated Anemic Patients Undergoing Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery
… dual antiplatelet therapy until within 5 days of off-pump CABG (OPCAB). Methods and Results: Seventy-six anemic patients were randomized into two groups: a TA group receiving TA (1 g bolus followed by infusion at 200 mg h-1) and a Control group receiving the same volume of saline. The amount of …

Myocardial metabolism and ischemia assessed by microdialysis. Clinical and experimental studies in cardiac surgery
… In the fourth study, microdialysis showed that off-pump bypass surgery caused less metabolic derangements compared to on-pump surgery. Microdialysis was also able to correctly detect episodes of cardiac ischemia. Conclusions: Microdialysis can be used to monitor myocardial metabolism and …
