The Relationship Between Blood Flow Readings During Surgery and How Well the Graft Stays Open and How Patients Recover Afterward in Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery
Sponsor: Weill Medical College of Cornell University
Summary
The purpose of this study is to learn more about a tool called Transit-Time Flow Measurement (TTFM). TTFM uses sound waves during surgery to check how well blood is flowing through blood vessels. This helps doctors see if the blood flow is good during coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), which is a type of heart surgery

Interventions
Transit-Time Flow Measurement (TTFM)
TTFM is based on ultrasound technology and allows the assessment of intraoperative graft function based on quantification, directionality and resistance to blood flow through the graft.
