Intraoperative measurements of blood flow were made in 44 patients in whom a total of 112 venous bypass grafts were inserted. Blood flow through the graft was measured by a standard electromagnetic device as well as by a new method, consisting of a roller pump run-off system. At an average of 5 months after operation all patients underwent control coronaro-angiography. Overall patency-rate was 86.6%. Using the standard method mean flow in the patent grafts was 78 ml/min and 39 ml/min in the occluded grafts. Using the new run-off method mean flow in the patent grafts was 142 ml/min and 78 ml/min in the occluded grafts. It is concluded that measuring distal coronary artery run-off capacity provides a reliable index for predicting patency rate. For several reasons roller-pump run-off measurement has advantages over the generally used electromagnetic measurements. |
