Intraoperative graft flow profiles in coronary artery bypass surgery: A meta‐analysis

Conduits used in coronary artery bypass artery grafting (CABG) have different properties and flow profiles. We compared intraoperative mean graft flow (MGF) between arterial and venous conduits, off‐pump CABG (OPCABG) and on‐pump CABG (ONCABG) procedures, skeletonized and pedicled internal mammary artery (IMA) grafts, and pulsatility index (PI) between OPCABG and ONCABG, in pairwise meta‐analyses.
