简要总结
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate improved vein graft patency rates at 12 months for endoscopically harvested saphenous vein grafts. The study will evaluate use modifications to existing techniques in vein graft handling during harvests. A secondary aim is to develop a standardized approach for harvesting, handling, and preparing vein grafts in the endoscopic approach.
详细描述
Available data supports two facts: 1) Saphenous vein graft failure rates may be as high as 47% per patient at one year post coronary artery bypass grafting, and 2) Endoscopic vein-graft harvesting is independently associated with vein-graft failure and adverse clinical outcomes.
Multiple factors may contribute to the lower long term patency rates of endoscopically harvested grafts. Summarized, the two major contributing factors are theorized to be harvesting techniques and vein trauma during harvesting.
With recognized disadvantages of open vessel harvesting including higher incidence of infection, longer incisions, greater potential for poor healing, and longer length of hospital stay, reducing the failure rate of vein grafts harvested endoscopically is of utmost importance.
It is our hypothesis that modification of existing harvesting techniques can improve vein graft patency in endoscopic vein graft harvesting so that patency rates comparable to open vessel harvesting can be obtained.
In this prospective, multi-center non-randomized, observational study, 100 patients will undergo routine coronary artery bypass grafting. Eligible candidates will undergo lone coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) procedures with endoscopic vein graft harvesting using best harvesting practices. As a part of routine postoperative care, patients will be prescribed dual-antiplatelet therapy of aspirin and clopidogrel. Compliance with 3 months of dual-antiplatelet therapy will be monitored.
