17
Q

Significantly higher rates of repeat revascularization in _____

A

PCI than CABG

18
Q

Most important criterion in conduit selection

A

Graft patency

19
Q

Conduit with highest patency rate

A

Internal thoracic artery

20
Q

Vessels used for conduit

A

Internal mammary artery
Saphenous vein graft
Radial artery
Gastroepiploic artery

21
Q

How to harvest saphenous vein

A

Conventional vein harvesting

Endoscpic vein harvesting

22
Q

Open technique, incision is made along the course of the vein on the medial aspect of the lower extremity

A

Conventional vein harvesting

23
Q

Starts with a small incision just above and medial to the knee where the endoscope is inserted

A

Endoscopic vein harvesting

24
Q

In using radial artery, confirm ulnar collateral flow to the hand by

A

Allen’s test

Duplex ultrasound study

25
Q

In harvesting radial artery, incision is made point near the _____

A

radial styloid process ending just medial and distal to the biceps tendon on the non-dominant hand

26
Q

To preserve myocardium, a temperature of ____ is needed

A

28 - 33 dec C

27
Q

Types of cardioplegic solution

A

Crystalloid

Blood

28
Q

Recommended to revascularize the area with the most concern for ischemia then give cardioplegia down the completed graft

A

Retrograde cardioplegia

29
Q

In LAD graft, this is performed last to avoid kinking or disruption of bypass

A

Left internal thoracic artery

30
Q

Does not make use of the heart-lung machine
Done to avoid the adverse consequences of cardiopulmonary bypass
Heart is left beating through myocadial stabilization devices for immobility while anastomoses are being done

A

Off-pump coronary artery bypass (OBCAP)

31
Q

One internal mammary and the rest are veins

A

Single IMA CABG

32
Q

Arteries still come from internal mammary artery

Higher success rates

A

Bilateral IMA CBG

33
Q

Fats in the vein are left behind and grafted

A

No touch saphenous vein technique

34
Q

Saphenous vein solution

A

Nitric oxide synthase

35
Q

Minimal incision, but maximum difficulty
Done through a left anterior mini-thoracotomy through which mobilization of the left internal thoracic and direct anastomosis to LAD is performed
Done to single-vessel disease

A

Minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (MIDCAB)

36
Q

Surgery may perform the procedure from another place, through the use of consoles
Expensive

A

Total endoscopic coronary artery bypass (TECAB)

37
Q

Similar to catheterization lab but it also serves as an operating room
Provides catheterization, agiography, CABG

A

Hybrid coronary revascularization

38
Q

Puncture the myocardium and expose to laser

Candidates are those not allowed for stenting, angioplasty or bypass

A

Transmyocardial laser revascularization

39
Q

Used for patients with end stage coronary artery disease

No longer recommended

A

Transmyocardial laser revascularization

40
Q

Regenerative medicine and tissue engineering

A

Cardiac stem cell theray

41
Q

Alternatives to CABG

A

Off-pump coronary artery bypass
Multiple arterial coronary revascularization
Minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass
Total endoscopic coronary artery bypass
Hybrid coronary revascularization
Transmyocardial laser revascularization
Cardiac stemm cell therapy
