About this trial

This study examines the outcomes of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in women at 1 year after surgery. A randomized controlled trial is planned, including a comparative analysis of two observed groups depending on the chosen conduit for revascularization of the circumflex artery. The main group is supposed to include 55 patients undergoing CABG with the use of the radial artery, while the control group will include 55 patients undergoing CABG with the use of the great saphenous vein prepared using the no-touch technique.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Three-vessel disease involving the target circumflex artery with stenosis ≥70% and a diameter ≥1.5 mm

Females aged 18 years and older

Signed informed consent

Clinical indications for coronary revascularization (refractory angina/transient myocardial ischemia according to noninvasive tests)

Disqualifiers

Previous cardiac surgery of any type, including CABG

Combined procedures

Ineligibility for venous or radial artery harvesting as determined by preoperative Doppler flowmetry or clinical examination that would compromise graft patency.

Acute myocardial ischemia
