Why the study?
Modifications including anastomosing techniques have been developed to improve long-term graft patency in CABG, prompting evaluation of the efficacy and outcome of sequential grafting.

May support short-term safety of sequential grafting; leaves open need for RCTs to guide practice.
Does sequential grafting technique improve short term outcomes in patients undergoing on pump CABG for multi-vessel coronary artery disease?
Sequential anastomosing technique in CABG appears safe and efficient with favorable short-term outcomes including low post-operative troponin levels.
