Background: There are limited studies reporting follow-up outcome data comparing of off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) with on-pump (ONCAB) technique. The aim of the study was to report the 5-year clinical outcomes of OPCAB and ONCAB in a post hoc analysis of the PROMOTE patency trial.
Methods: From March 2016 through March 2017, a total of 321 patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) were randomised to either the off-pump or the on-pump technique.

Purpose: Earlier we reported 3-month graft patency and clinical outcomes of prospective randomized comparison of off-pump and on-pump multivessel coronary artery bypass surgery to evaluate outcomes and graft patency (PROMOTE patency) trial. We now report major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) at 1 year of patients who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) using either off-pump technique or on-pump technique.
Methods: The PROMOTE patency trial is a two-arm, prospective, randomized, multicentre trial, and enrolled 320 patients with multivessel coronary artery disease from March 2016 through March 2017 at 6 centres and were randomly assigned to undergo either off-pump CABG (OPCAB) ( = 158 patients) or on-pump CABG ( = 162 patients).
Purpose: Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is performed either with the aid of cardiopulmonary bypass (on-pump) or without cardiopulmonary bypass (off-pump). There is a scarcity of angiographic data to support the non-inferiority of off-pump technique to on-pump technique. The objective of this study is to ascertain the non-inferiority of off-pump CABG when compared to on-pump CABG in terms of angiographically assessed graft patency at 3 months.
