Article Synopsis
- - The study compared a multimodal low-opioid anesthesia protocol (MLOP) to a routine-opioid protocol (ROP) during on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in 120 patients, focusing on postoperative complications and recovery metrics.
- - Results showed that the MLOP group had significantly lower IL-6 levels, shorter mechanical ventilation duration, and reduced incidences of low cardiac output syndrome and postoperative atrial fibrillation compared to the ROP group.
- - The findings suggest that MLOP may lead to better early postoperative outcomes after CABG, indicating its potential as a more favorable anesthesia protocol for these patients.
