ABSTRACT

Objective: To report our initial experience in the operation of coronary artery bypass grafting without cardiopulmonary bypass on a beating heart. Material and methods: The first 20 coronary artery bypass grafting without cardiopulmonary bypass operations performed between August 1994 and December 1997 were analyzed by distribution of the following variables: age, sex, intensive care unit length of stay, postoperative hospital length of stay, perioperative complications and mortality. Results: 85% were male and 15% female. The mean age was 54.45 ± 10.17. The Intensive Care Unit length of stay remained between 1 and 4 days with an average of 2 (± of 0.79). The average postoperative hospital length of stay was 4.98 ± 2.08 days. Early unfavorable outcome events included: postoperative bleeding 10%, myocardial infarct 5% and surgical wound infection 10%. The perioperative mortality rate for the entire group was 0%. Conclusions: It is our belief that in selected cases coronary artery bypass grafting without cardiopulmonary bypass is a safe procedure with the advantage of improvement in recovery during the postoperative period, and show dramatic impact in terms of shorter hospital stays.
