12. OPCAB- “beating heart surgery”
• Extensive ascending aortic atheromatous or calcific
changes
• In U.S., OPCAB ~ 25% in 2001 of isolated CABG and
has not changed since then.
• Disadvantage
• Incomplete revascularization if exposure of the back
of the heart is challenging
• Decreased graft patency because of suboptimal
conditions during the construction of the distal
anastomosis.

33. OBJECTIVES
• To characterize the risk of acute kidney injury with an
intervention in a randomized clinical trial.
• To determine if there is a difference between the 2
treatment groups in kidney function 1 year later.
34. Study design and setting
• Substudy of CORONARY trial
• 69 of 79 study sites participated
• January 2010 – June 2011
• Each site randomized into the protocol
4752 patients in CORONARY trial
1777 excluded
-1336 from participating sites prior to substudy initiation
-441 from nonparticipating sites
2975 patients enrolled
35. Patients
• Per the CORONARY trial
• Additional exclusion
• ESRD - eGFR < 15 ml/min/1.73m2 or chronic dialysis
• No SCr before randomization
36. Outcomes
• Postoperative AKI
• > 50% increase in SCr from baseline within 30 days of CABG
• Baseline SCr obtained within 7 days before randomization
• Highest SCr within 30 days after surgery was assessed for AKI
• Loss of kidney function at 1 year
• > 20% loss in eGFR from baseline
• SCr at 1 year was measured
• CKD-EPI for eGFR
37. Statistical analysis

45. Observational Cohort Analysis
Kidney function loss at 1 year: 32.1% in AKI vs 12.5% in non-AKI patients
Adjusted OR = 3.37 (95% CI, 2.65-4.28); p < 0.001
46. Discussion
• Off-pump CABG reduces the risk of AKI
• Benefit was higher in pts with preoperative CKD
• An intervention that prevents AKI better preserves long-term kidney
function – remain unproven in RCT
• Too small magnitude of AKI reduction with off-pump CABG and affect
too few patients to have an effect on long-term kidney function
• Too short follow-up
• Errors with SCr as a measure of kidney function
• Differential care in follow-up between off- and on-pump CABG
• Mild to moderate AKI may not cause substantial CKD
47. Limitations
• Multiple measurement of kidney function over time both
before and long after AKI
• Use of new markers of kidney function or injury
• Enroll a greater number of pts with baseline CKD
• a causal relationship between AKI and long-term kidney
function more likely to observed if exist
48. Strengths of this study
• Largest AKI prevention trial conducted to date.
• International recruitment across 19 countries will
provide generalizable estimates of the treatment effect
• Use of a rigorous randomized trial method
• concealed allocation
• blinded central adjudication of outcomes
• No evidence of differential ascertainment of kidney
outcomes in two surgical groups
• Complete follow-up
• >90% had 1-year SCr measured
49. Conclusion
• The use of off-pump vs on-pump CABG surgery
• Reduced the risk of postoperative AKI;
• Failed to observe better kidney function with off-pump
vs on-pump CABG surgery 1 year later.
Standard coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) employs a midline incision through the sternum, placement of the patient on cardiopulmonary bypass, and arrest of the heart with cardioplegia. This approach allows for optimal exposure of the coronary arteries and a motionless (non-beating) heart, both of which optimize the suturing of the distal anastomoses of the bypass.
Composition of cardioplegic solutions
Figure 1. OPCAB tissue stabilization and heart positioning devices. Top, the Genzyme Immobilizer, which utilizes a stabilization platform and silastic vessel loops. Middle, the Medtronic Octopus4 tissue stabilizer and Starfish2 heart positioner, which utilize vacuum suction to stabilize and position the heart. Bottom, the Coro-Vasc System (CoroNeo Inc), which illustrates silastic snares that are looped around the target coronary vessel and then fixed to a small immobile plate, thus directly immobilizing the target vessel.
Directed acyclic graph of the causal pathway between coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery type (off-pump vs on-pump), mediating variable acute kidney injury (AKI) and dependent variable renal function 1 year after surgery. The dashed arrows indicate that the causal relationship is unknown but will be investigated.
