Stroke is a serious complication that occurs in approximately 3% of patients undergoing elective coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Neurologic dysfunction is a well-researched challenge in cardiac surgery, particularly when cardiopulmonary bypass is used. This study aimed to determine the stroke rate following CABG in a Jordanian population, based on our experience at a low-volume cardiac center.

: The NeoChord procedure is a trans-ventricular, echo-guided, beating-heart mitral valve (MV) repair technique used to treat degenerative mitral regurgitation (MR) caused by leaflet prolapse and/or flail. : This study aimed to develop a machine learning (ML) scoring system using pre-procedural clinical and echocardiographic variables to predict the success of the NeoChord procedure-defined as less than moderate MR at follow-up. A total of 80 patients were included.

In high-risk and frail patients with multivessel coronary artery disease (MV CAD), guidelines indicated complete revascularization with or without the use of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) bears a high morbidity and mortality risk. In cases where catheter interventions were deemed unsuitable and conventional coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) posed an unacceptable perioperative risk, patients were scheduled for minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (MIDCAB) grafting or minimally invasive multivessel coronary artery bypass grafting (MICS-CABG). We called this approach "palliative revascularization.

Objective: To compare the therapeutic effects of off-pump versus conventional coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in elderly coronary heart disease (CHD) patients.
Methods: This retrospective study analyzed 98 elderly CHD patients (47 conventional CABG, 51 off-pump CABG) treated between April 2019 and March 2021. Outcomes included intraoperative and postoperative indicators (distal anastomoses, mechanical ventilation time, hospital stay), graft patency, left ventricular function (LVEF, LVEDD), cardiac biomarkers (cTnI, CK, CK-MB), complication rates, 3-month quality of life (QoL), and long-term major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE).

Background: Timely assessment of Low cardiac output syndrome (LCOS) risk after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) is crucial, yet hindered by the lack of standardized diagnostic criteria beyond symptoms, therapy response, and ultrasound.
Purpose: This study aims to develop, construct, and internally validate a predictive model to predict low cardiac output syndrome (LCOS) in patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB).
Patients And Methods: Using a clinical dataset of 765 OPCAB patients treated between May 2018 and July 2020, encompassing admission, surgical, and postoperative data, a predictive model was developed.
