About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Randomized Comparison of Graft Patency and Clinical Outcomes After Coronary Bypass Surgery Performed With and Without the Use of Cardiopulmonary Bypass:Longitudinal Follow-Up

The purpose of this study is to determine completeness of revascularization, graft patency, clinical outcomes, health-related quality of life and costs in 200 initial trial participants at > 5 years post surgery who had heart bypass surgery with heart-lung bypass (on-pump) or without heart-lung bypass (off-pump). The hypothesis is that the patency of coronary artery bypass grafts of off-pump surgery are no less durable than grafts from conventional on-pump surgery.

Read the detailed description

The Surgical Management of Arterial Revascularization Therapies (SMART) trial is a randomized, controlled, double blinded trial designed to compare completeness of revascularization, graft patency, clinical outcomes, health-related quality of life and costs in 200 unselected patients referred for elective, isolated coronary bypass surgery and randomized to have coronary artery bypass performed with or without cardiopulmonary bypass. These patients were enrolled between March 2000 to August 2001.

The primary objective of this study is to test the hypothesis that the patency of coronary artery bypass grafts constructed during off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB)are no less durable than the patency of those constructed during conventional CABG with cardiopulmonary bypass (CABG/CPB)after > 5 years of follow-up (non-inferiority hypothesis).

The secondary objectives are to determine whether there are differences between these randomized groups in the following outcomes measures at > 5 years:

  1. Neurocognitive Function
  2. Stroke/cerebral injury
  3. Health-related quality of life
  4. Myocardial perfusion and ischemia
  5. Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE)
  6. Cardiac Functional Status
  7. Incidence and severity of angina
  8. All cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality
  9. Cost of hospital re-admissions since 1 year follow-up

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. after > 5 years, graft patency determined by non-invasive dual 64 slice multi-detector computed tomographic coronary angiography and cardiac positron emission tomography.

    Measured: 8 year follow-up

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Secondary outcomes will be measured by; a battery of neuropsychological tests, MRI, NIH stroke scale, questionnaires, cardiac PET scanning, NYHA and CCS classifications and Medicare DRG's.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Coronary Artery Bypass in people with Coronary Artery Disease, run by Emory University at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Oct 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

after > 5 years, graft patency determined by non-invasive dual 64 slice multi-detector computed tomographic coronary angiography and cardiac positron emission tomography. (time frame: 8 year follow-up). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Oct 2013.
