Anaesthetic implications during off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery

Journal Title: Indian Journal of Clinical Anaesthesia - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 3

Abstract

Offpump coronary artery bypass has emerged as a popular method of coronary revascularization to mitigate the harmful effects of cardiopulmonary bypass It requires surgical and anaesthetic expertise for good results Newer minimally invasive approaches to off pump coronary bypass provide attractive alternatives to conventional off pump surgery especially in achieving better cosmetic results and early extubation They require good perioperative pain management with epidural and paravertebral block being good choices Emergency conversion of offpump bypass to onpump bypass is associated with poor outcomes so preventive measures to avoid it should be employedKeywords Offpump coronary artery bypass Anaesthetic implications
