Forty patients with coronary artery disease were included in this study. Half of them received cold crystalloid and cold blood cardioplegia (group 1), and half received normothermic blood cardioplegia (group 2). In group 1, left ventricular stroke work index was 24 +/- 3 g.m/m2 1 hour after the operation, 29 +/- 8 g.m/m2 12 hours after the operation, and 33 +/- 6 g.m/m2 24 hours after the operation. In group 2, left ventricular stroke work index was 37 +/- 4 g.m/m2 1 hour after the operation, 37 +/- 4 g.m/m2 12 hours after the operation, and 44 +/- 7 g.m/m2 24 hours after the operation. Myocardial oxygen extraction 20 minutes after the termination of cardiopulmonary bypass was 0.28 +/- 0.03 in group 1 and 0.44 +/- 0.08 in group 2. Myocardial lactate extraction at the same time was -0.09 +/- 0.02 in patients receiving cold blood cardioplegia and 0.17 +/- 0.07 in patients receiving normothermic blood cardioplegia. Electron microscopic study revealed no calcium accumulation in the mitochondria in group 2 patients, whereas calcium accumulation was present in the other group.

Abstract The purpose of this study was to investigate the risk of perioperative major cerebrovascular events (MCVEs) in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and to develop preventive therapy. After excluding the patients with marked ascending aortic atheromas and those with combined intracardiac procedures such as valve replacement and aneurysmectomy, 722 consecutive patients who had carotid artery duplex scanning (CADS) and CABG were studied. The results of the study showed the correlation of advanced age, smoking, previous major cerebrovascular event (MCVE), and severe coronary artery disease with high grade carotid artery stenosis of 80–99% (p < 0.05). A total of 13 patients had perioperative MCVE and an analysis of risk factors showed that the MCVE correlated with carotid stenosis of > 60% and reduced cardiac output requiring inotropic support (p < 0.01). Prophylactic carotid endarterectomy (CEA) in patients with 80% to 99% carotid stenosis notably decreased the incidence of MCVE (p < 0.01), and the use of the “pump off” technique instead of standard cardiopulmonary bypass decreased MCVE (p = 0.056). On the basis of these data, prophylactic carotid endarterectomy is effective in averting perioperative MCVE in subjects with carotid stenosis of 80% to 99%, and for those with 60% to 79% carotid stenosis, the pump off technique decreases MCVE.

Abstract It Is accepted universally that the treatment of critical left main coronary artery (LMCA) stenosis is surgical revascularization. This study was designed to evaluate critical LMCA stenosis as a risk factor in coronary artery bypass surgery. We compared the surgical results of 760 patients with critical LMCA disease, including 58 cases who were operated under emergency conditions (LMCA‐em) and 702 patients who were operated electively (LMCA‐el), with randomly chosen 707 coronary bypass patients (CONT‐el) without LMCA disease, but who had double‐ or triple‐vessel disease. Another group of patients (n = 99) who were operated on under emergency conditions (CONT‐em) but without LMCA disease were also compared with the corresponding groups. The mortality of LMCA‐em group and CONT‐em group was markedly higher from the other two groups. Univariate analysis revealed that female gender, older age, presence of diabetes mellitus, poor left ventricular function, and the presence of unstable angina were major risk factors for fatal outcome in LMCA‐el and CONT‐el groups. Age was also a risk factor in LMCA‐em group, as well as unstable angina pectoris. The coexistence of critical right coronary artery disease did not affect the early outcome in both groups with LMCA lesions. In the multivariate analysis, critical LMCA disease was not a risk factor for mortality. Logistic regression analysis revealed diabetes [odds ratio (OR): 3.66], poor left ventricular function (higher left ventricle end‐diastolic pressure, OR: 1.08), and emergent operations (OR: 5.09) were risk factors for early mortality. Patients with LMCA disease should have surgery promptly for favorable results, because emergency conditions have higher mortality rates.
