Five-Year Outcomes after Off-Pump or On-Pump Coronary-Artery Bypass Grafting [1]
This trial randomly assigned 4,752 patients from 19 countries to either on-pump or off-pump CABG with a mean follow-up of 4.8 years. The authors report no difference in death, stroke, myocardial infarction, renal failure or repeat revascularization at 5 years between the two groups.
