One-year Patency Comparison Between Radial Artery and No-touch Saphenous Vein Grafts in Women Undergoing Isolated CABG
Sponsor: University of Sao Paulo General Hospital
Summary
The use of a graft from the left internal thoracic artery to the left anterior descending artery has become the gold standard for the indication of coronary artery bypass grafting. However, choosing a graft for the second-best coronary artery, focusing on long-term patency, is still a challenge. The saphenous vein using the "no-touch" technique is an alternative to a radial artery graft, but there is little evidence, especially in women. This randomized clinical study aims to compare the patency of these grafts in the second-best coronary artery in women undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting.

Interventions
Coronary artery bypass graft
Randomization will be performed for stratification according to the target coronary arteries and the randomly determined block size from 4 to 6. The randomization result will be delivered in a sealed envelope in the operating room (before the time out) for one of the two drawn strategies.
