Purpose?
Myocardial revascularization w/ conduit to bypass occluded vessel
Indications?
Vessel disease
Diffuse atherosclerotic lesions
LV dysfunction
Describe the vessels used for the CABG
Saphenous vein
-req 2 anastomosis sites
-endoscopic harvesting possible

Internal mammary artery
-left or right, LIMA or RIMA
-best choice, better patency
-only one anastomosis site

Radial artery
-associated with high rates of spasm
What is important to note about the mechanical circulation and oxygenation of blood during the procedure?
