  • Title: Cardiopulmonary bypass without ischemic arrest: a myocardial protection strategy for high-risk patients requiring urgent CABG.
    Author: Akowuah E, Allen S, Marchbank A.
    Journal: J Card Surg; 2006; 21(5):496-7. PubMed ID: 16948769.
    Abstract:
    For patients requiring emergency coronary artery revascularization, mortality remains high. One of the primary reasons is poor functional and metabolic recovery of the myocardium after ischemic arrest. We describe a hybrid of the off-pump and on-pump techniques to avoid ischemic arrest during coronary revascularization for this high-risk group.
