Context: Conventional coronary artery bypass graft surgery with use of cardiopulmonary bypass (on-pump CABG) is associated with excellent long-term cardiac outcomes but also with a high incidence of cognitive decline. The effect of avoiding cardiopulmonary bypass (off-pump CABG) on long-term cognitive and cardiac outcomes is unknown.
Objective: To compare the effect of off-pump CABG and on-pump CABG surgery on long-term cognitive and cardiac outcomes.
Design, Setting, and Participants: The Octopus Study, a multicenter randomized controlled trial . . . [Full Text of this Article]
