About this trial
Myocardial protection during surgical myocardial revascularization is crucial for reducing perioperative myocardial injury and improving postoperative outcomes. Blood cardioplegia represents the standard method in many centers, while del Nido cardioplegia, originally developed for the pediatric population, is increasingly being used in adult patients as well.
