A Prospective Randomized Trial of External Vein Graft Support in Surgical Myocardial Revascularization
The aim of the thesis is to compare a group of patients using vein grafts with and without external support, specifically their patency. This is a prospective study with a follow-up plan of 150 patients, in whom the functionality of the grafts will be monitored at time intervals.
Inclusion: elective cardiosurgical revascularization using VSM vein graft, i.e. patients with MVD findings.
Exclusion: thromboembolic event in the past, long-term warfarinization, mechanical valves, infection during the procedure, urgent procedure, allergy to contrast material, pregnancy, elevated creatinine. A relative contraindication for exclusion from the study is: VSM varicosity, VSM damage during sampling.The age, gender or weight of the patient has no influence on the indication.
