What does this research mean for the field?

Coronary angiography and bypass surgery can be performed in patients with end-stage renal disease at an acceptable risk, providing significant relief of angina and improved activity levels when perioperative dialysis is properly managed. Novelty: ClaimNovelty.INCREMENTAL. Consensus alignment: ConsensusAlignment.NEUTRAL.

Overview

Suggests CABG may relieve angina in ESRD with IHD despite mortality risk; leaves open confirmation in controlled trials.

Structured PICO

Does coronary-artery bypass surgery improve symptoms in patients with end-stage renal failure and severe ischemic heart disease?

Population

15 patients with end-stage renal failure and clinical evidence of severe ischemic heart disease.

Intervention

Coronary arteriography followed by coronary-artery bypass grafts (CABG) in 10 patients (2 with concurrent mitral-valve replacement), with peri-procedural dialysis.

Outcome

Surgical mortality, relief of angina, and improvement in level of activity.hard clinical

CABG can be performed with acceptable risk in patients with end-stage renal disease and severe ischemic heart disease, providing significant symptomatic relief when managed with peri-procedural dialysis.
