NCT00139399

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the radial artery (artery in the arm) or saphenous vein (vein in the leg), when used as bypass grafts for coronary artery bypass surgery, have a greater patency rate (degree of opening)at 5 years after surgery.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Patency Rates

    Angiographic patency rates of radial artery and long saphenous vein grafts at follow-up angiography

    5 years

  • Mean Diameter of the Study Graft (Saphenous Vein or Radial Artery)

    Diameter response of the study vessel (saphenous vein or radial artery graft) to acetylcholine, measured using quantitative coronary angiography from the coronary angiogram.

    5 year follow-up

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Blood Flow Volume

    5 years

Study Arms (2)

Saphenous vein

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Saphenous vein aortocoronary bypass graft

Procedure: Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery

Radial artery

EXPERIMENTAL

Radial artery aortocoronary bypass graft

Procedure: Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery

Interventions

Patients were randomized to receive either a radial artery or a long saphenous vein graft to the left circumflex coronary artery territory during CABG surgery

Eligibility Criteria

Age40 Years - 70 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • on waiting list for clinically-indicated myocardial revascularization surgery
  • aged 40-70 years
  • significant stenosis (≥70%) in the circumflex territory as identified on preoperative angiograms
  • negative Allen's test (defined as the return of palmar circulation within 5 seconds of releasing ulnar artery compression)
  • willing to give written informed consent

You may not qualify if:

  • poor left ventricular (LV) function (LV ejection fraction \<25%)
  • severe diffuse peripheral vascular disease or bilateral varicose venous disease
  • inability to comply with the angiographic follow-up at 3 months or/and 5 years
