Email this article Coronary Sinus Blood Flow (CSBF) and Ejection Fraction (EF) studies before and after – off pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) - a literature review
Abstract
Abstract:
Background: Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) Surgery reliably improving survival in patients suffering from coronary artery disease, but what effect it has on cardiac function is still obscure. It is a matter of great interest to review current literature to assess the CSBF and ejection fraction (EF) by transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) in patients before and after off pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) grafting.
Aim: The purpose of the article is to collect information about Coronary Sinus Blood Flow (CSBF) and Ejection Fraction (EF) studies before and after – off pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB). Correlating with each other and drawing conclusions.
Methods: We analyzed 70 articles regarding to that of cardiac functional activities and coronary blood flow previous and after revascularization procedures.
Results: Although recent articles describe changes in coronary flow before and after bypass grafting, the relationship between cardiac functional parameters and blood supply is less well documented, particularly between EF and sinus perfusion.
Conclusion: We can conclude that this issue requires further research.
Keywords: Coronary Sinus Blood Flow (CSBF); Ejection Fraction (EF); Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG); Transesophageal Echocardiography (TEE)
