In contrast, several non-randomized observational studies comparing CABG and PCI using large health record data sets reported better survival with CABG than PCI in the overall cohort with subgroup analyses suggesting a gradient of benefit particularly among patients with three-vessel disease.21–25. To account for this, several risk scores combining clinical variables with the SYNTAX score have been developed. Corresponding author.

Patients who are not candidates for angioplasty … The SYNTAX trial was the first multicentre RCT comparing CABG with PCI using drug-eluting stents (DES) that employed a heart-team based, all-comer approach, and succeeded to include 41% of screened patients increasing its external validity.26 All patients were required to have severe CAD by limiting inclusion to patients with three-vessel and left main CAD. In 2007, Bravata et al.20 reported the results of a meta-analysis of 23 RCTs comparing CABG and PCI (balloon angioplasty and bare metal stents) among approximately 10 000 patients. Of note, considering life expectancy of patients included in the latest trials investigating revascularization in the setting of left main CAD, longer follow-up results of these trials are awaited.

Notwithstanding, observational data from the recent SYNTAX II trial indicate that a multimodal strategy incorporating guideline-based medical treatment, a heart-team based patient selection with use of the SYNTAX score II, intracoronary physiology-guided PCI using a hybrid assessment using iwFR and FFR combined with IVUS-guided stent implantation and contemporary CTO lesion management result in improved clinical outcomes throughout 1 year as compared to a historical PCI cohort derived from the SYNTAX I trial.61 These procedural and technological improvements deserve consideration and further evaluation in appropriately designed revascularization trials. Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting Caron G. Martin, MSN, RN; Sandra L. Turkelson, MSN, RN The role of the professional nurse in the perioperative care of the patient undergoing open heart surgery is beneficial for obtaining a positive outcome for the patient. The EXCEL trial compared CABG with PCI using new generation DES [Everolimus-Eluting Stent (EES)] among 1905 patients with left main CAD with evidence of invasive or non-invasive ischaemia.42 Although complex left main CAD defined as SYNTAX score of >32 constituted a formal exclusion criterion, the distribution of SYNTAX score tertiles according to the Core laboratory evaluation were 36%, 40%, and 24% for low (<22), intermediate (23–32), and high (>32) SYNTAX score, respectively. There are currently variations on techniques that are classified as “minimally invasive” coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. Therefore, PCI in this setting cannot be endorsed as long-term outcomes are likely to be similar to patients with multivessel disease. 1) [].

These data therefore also satisfy statistical criteria of significance for the interaction between SYNTAX tertiles and outcomes between PCI and CABG. coronary artery bypass grafting without cardiopulmo- nary bypass is justified and that, with proper selection of patients, the procedure is safe and cost-effective. Results in the overall group of patients with multivessel or left main CAD demonstrated superiority of CABG over PCI for all-cause mortality during a mean follow-up of 3.8 ± 1.4 years.

Coronary artery bypass grafting is indicated in a STEMI only for patients who have coronary anatomy not amenable to PCI with ongoing ischemia, for patients in whom PCI has failed, or in patients who have mechanical complications (ventricular septal defect, myocardial free-wall rupture, or papillary mus-cle rupture) related to their acute coronary syndrome (ACS). There are also important anatomico-pathological considerations owing to the differences between aorto-ostial lesions and the distal left main with involvement of the bifurcation in >60% of cases.

Angiographic–histologic correlative analysis in 28 patients, Comparison of surgical and medical group survival in patients with left main coronary artery disease. Patients with left main and multivessel CAD require individual decision making by the local Heart Team guided by assessment of the operative risk, complexity of the underlying CAD, and likelihood to achieve complete revascularization. Of note, none of the intracoronary physiology or imaging parameters have been prospectively investigated in trials comparing PCI and CABG and represent an important gap of evidence. Stratified analyses according to diabetes mellitus revealed improved survival among patients allocated to CABG compared with those allocated to PCI at 5 years and 10 years of follow-up.

As the population ages, an increasing number of older patients are being referred for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) for cardiovascular diseases [1, 2].Octogenarians, as the fastest growing stratum of the population and with the highest prevalence of coronary artery disease, are particularly more often being sent to cardiothoracic surgeons for surgical revascularization (Fig. CABG was associated with fewer CV endpoints. In patients with diabetes, mortality was higher among patients allocated to PCI compared with CABG (15.7% vs. 10.7%, HR 1.44, 95% CI 1.20–1.74; P = 0.001), whereas mortality was comparable for PCI and CABG among patients without diabetes (8.7% vs. 8.2%, HR 1.02, 95% CI 0.86–1.21; P = 0.81, P for interaction 0.0077, Figure 2). Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is the revascularization strategy of choice for patients with multivessel coronary artery disease, particularly those with complex lesions and high SYNTAX scores, those with diabetes mellitus, and those with left ventricular systolic dysfunction.

The NOBLE trial compared CABG with PCI using new generation DES (Biolimus-Eluting Stent-BES) among 1201 patients with left main CAD (mean SYNTAX score of 23) treated between 2008 and 2015.43 At a median follow-up of 3.1 years, the primary endpoint of death, non-procedural MI, stroke and repeat revascularization occurred more frequently in the PCI than CABG group (29% vs. 19%, HR 1.48, 95% CI 1.11–1.96; P = 0.007). The first RCTs comparing CABG with medical therapy observed a survival benefit in favour of revascularization, findings that were synthesized in the individual patient data meta-analysis by Yusuf et al.19 reporting the greatest relative benefit of CABG over medical therapy in the specific subset of patients with left main disease.

Recently, Head et al.29 reported the results of a collaborative individual patient data meta-analysis of 11 RCTs among 11 518 patients with multivessel or left main CAD who did not present with acute coronary syndromes and were randomly allocated to CABG or PCI with the primary outcome all-cause mortality. Moreover, complete anatomical and physiological revascularization among patients with multivessel CAD is associated with improved outcomes irrespective of the revascularization strategy but has been less complete in case of PCI particularly among patients with chronic total occlusions (CTO).10,11,13,55 In addition, pre-interventional physiologic lesion mapping56 and intracoronary imaging (intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and optical coherence tomography (OCT))57–60 as well as post-procedural assessment translate into improved outcomes particularly among patients with left main and multivessel disease. A table to inform the reader is provide in Chapter 5.3.1.1 of the guideline document.14, The stratification of guideline recommendations between CABG and PCI in patients with stable multivessel CAD according to anatomical complexity with use of the SYNTAX score groups, diabetes, and left main disease was introduced in the 2010 ESC/EACTS Guidelines on Myocardial Revascularization15 and maintained in the 2014 version.16 Of note, the ACCF/AHA/SCAI 2011 guideline for PCIs17 and American College of Cardiology (ACC)/AATS/AHA/ASE/ASNC/SCAI/SCCT/STS 2017 appropriate use criteria18 have embraced the same criteria for stratification of treatment decisions on CABG vs. PCI. would have to be adjusted for multiple testing, resulting in an adjusted P-value for significance of 0.005 based on the 10 comparisons reported in the original publication. The appropriate treatment allocation among patients with left main and coronary artery disease (CAD) at estimated low surgical risk remains a complex decision process. Here, we will review the rationale and new evidence in support of this stratification scheme (Take home figure). %PDF-1.3 %���� With low SYNTAX scores PCI and CABG achieve similar long-term outcomes with respect to survival and the composite of death, myocardial infarction (MI), and stroke. performed such a test for linear trend of log HRs across ordered SYNTAX tertiles using the same approach as for the primary analysis, a random-effects Cox model with shared frailty reflected by a random intercept to account for variation in baseline risk between trials.

At 3 years of follow-up, the primary endpoint of death, stroke, or MI occurred with similar frequency in the CABG and PCI group [14.7% vs. 15.4%, HR 1.00, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.79–1.26; P = 0.98] without significant differences in the individual components. 0000001555 00000 n The choice between PCI and CABG is informed by carefully weighing the benefits and risks inherent to the respective revascularization technique as well as local expertise. It is best achieved in the context of the local Heart Team taking into consideration the operative risk as calculated by established risk scores, the complexity of the underlying CAD, intra- and extracardiac factors that may favour one revascularization technique over another as well as local expertise. Coronary artery bypass grafting with the gastroepiploic artery. Based on the review above, the SYNTAX score currently remains the best tool to gauge the anatomical complexity of advanced CAD and is helpful to appraise the relative benefit of choosing between revascularization strategies among patients with multivessel disease.

A review of COVID-19-related thrombosis and anticoagulation strategies specific to the Asian population. The data showed similar survival throughout 10 years, but a higher risk of stroke, better relief of angina, and a lower risk of repeat revascularization with CABG. In 2009, Hlatky et al.49 reported the results of an individual patient data meta-analysis of 10 RCTs (6 RCTs with balloon angioplasty, 4 RCTs with bare metal stents) including 7812 patients comparing PCI and CABG among patients with multivessel CAD with a mean follow-up of 5.9 years. Research letters in CMAJ. A coronary artery bypass graft involves taking a blood vessel from another part of the body (usually the chest, leg or arm) and attaching it to the coronary artery above and below the narrowed area or blockage. 2 Data Collection and Definitions Demographic, angiographic and procedural data were col-lected from hospital charts and databases. Published on behalf of the European Society of Cardiology. As a result, the primary endpoint within 30 days was in favour of PCI (4.9% vs. 7.9%, HR 0.61, 95% CI 0.42–0.88; P = 0.008). �N Patients who undergo redo CABG are older, more comorbid, and with more sclerotic coronary and noncardiac arteries than seen in primary CABG. 0000011872 00000 n Among them, the SYNTAX II score is the most intensively studied. It's used for people who have severe coronary heart disease (CHD), also called coronary artery disease. The failure to demonstrate significant differences in terms of survival during long-term follow-up was thought to be related to the fact that these trials included highly selected patients (10% of screened patients) and excluded patients with complex and advanced CAD (three-vessel or left main disease). Diabetes mellitus is not just a risk factor but rather a distinct disease entity that is critical for the selection between myocardial revascularization strategies in patients with multivessel disease. 0000001979 00000 n Ad N, Holmes SD, Patel J, Pritchard G, Shuman DJ, Halpin L.
