Article Synopsis
- Coronary artery disease is a serious health issue, and the study looks at two different methods of heart surgery called CABG: off-pump and on-pump.
- The researchers found that patients who had the off-pump technique had a much lower chance of having a stroke during or after their surgery compared to those who had the on-pump technique.
- Overall, the study suggests that off-pump CABG is a safer choice for patients with severe carotid stenosis, while still helping them live a long time after the surgery.
