How should transit time flow measurement be used for intraoperative graft patency verification during coronary artery bypass grafting?
This review provides guidance on the principles, clinical applications, and technical pitfalls of using transit time flow measurement for intraoperative graft patency verification during CABG.
D’Ancona et al. (2000) conducted a review in Coronary artery bypass grafting. Transit time flow measurement was evaluated. Transit time flow measurement is a useful method for intraoperative graft patency verification during coronary artery bypass grafting, requiring simultaneous consideration of flow curves and values.
