Bypass grafting may enhance cardiac output and wall motion in single-vessel disease; leaves open generalizability beyond this case.
Does coronary artery bypass surgery improve ventricular function and cardiac output in a patient with single vessel coronary disease and exertional angina?
Coronary artery bypass surgery can provide substantial physiologic benefits, including improved cardiac output and normalized segmental wall motion, in addition to relieving anginal symptoms.
Miller et al. (1978) studied this question.
