Floyd D. Loop,Bruce W. Lytle,Delos M. Cosgrove,Robert W. Stewart,Marlene Goormastic,G W Williams,Leonard A.R. Golding,Carl C. Gill,Peter C. Taylor,W C Sheldon +9 more
TL;DR: It was found that patients who had only vein grafts had a 1.61 times greater risk of death throughout the 10 years, as compared with those who received an internal-mammary-artery graft.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term (5 to 12 years) serial studies of internal mammary artery and saphenous vein coronary bypass grafts.
Bruce W. Lytle,Floyd D. Loop,Delos M. Cosgrove,Norman B. Ratliff,Kirk A. Easley,Paul C. Taylor +5 more
TL;DR: Between 5 and 12 years after operation, the attrition rate of vein grafts greatly exceeded that of mammary artery grafts, and early vein graft patency was influenced by the coronary artery grafted and by angina.
Journal ArticleDOI
Two internal thoracic artery grafts are better than one.
Bruce W. Lytle,Eugene H. Blackstone,Floyd D. Loop,Penny L. Houghtaling,John H. Arnold,Rami Akhrass,Patrick M. McCarthy,Delos M. Cosgrove +7 more
TL;DR: Patients who received 2 ITA grafts had decreased risks of death, reoperation, and angioplasty; the differences between the bilateral and single ITA groups were greatest in regard to reoperation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Morbidity and mortality risk associated with red blood cell and blood-component transfusion in isolated coronary artery bypass grafting.
Colleen G. Koch,Liang Li,Andra I. Duncan,Tomislav Mihaljevic,Delos M. Cosgrove,Floyd D. Loop,Norman J. Starr,Eugene H. Blackstone +7 more
TL;DR: Perioperative red blood cell transfusion is the single factor most reliably associated with increased risk of postoperative morbid events after isolated coronary artery bypass grafting.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sternal wound complications after isolated coronary artery bypass grafting: Early and late mortality, morbidity, and cost of care
Floyd D. Loop,Bruce W. Lytle,Delos M. Cosgrove,Saade S. Mahfood,Martin C. McHenry,Marlene Goormastic,Robert W. Stewart,Leonard A.R. Golding,Paul C. Taylor +8 more
TL;DR: Of 6,504 consecutive patients who underwent isolated coronary bypass grafting in 1985 to 1987, 72 (1.1%) patients experienced sternal wound complications, and ten patients with wound complications died of multi-system failure.
