Purpose
This is prospective, randomized, multicenter, multinational, randomized (1:1) study. The aim of this study is to assess the importance of functional assessment of coronary artery disease prior to bypass surgery. In particular, an FFR-guided strategy will be compared to the traditional Angio-guided strategy in the guidance of surgical revascularization by aorto-coronary bypass grafting.
| Condition | Intervention | Phase |
|---|---|---|
| Coronary Artery Disease | Procedure: Surgical revascularization | Phase 4 |
| Study Type: | Interventional |
| Study Design: | Allocation: Randomized Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment Masking: Double Blind (Participant, Investigator) Primary Purpose: Treatment |
| Official Title: | Graft Patency After FFR-guided Versus Angio-guided CABG: a Prospective, Multicenter, Multinational, Randomized (1:1) Controlled Trial |

Primary Outcome Measures:
- Rate of occluded bypass grafts [ Time Frame: 1 year ]
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- a) Lenght of hospital stay; b) Changes in surgical strategy: i.e. open-chest surgery vs. mini-thoracotomy; extensive surgery versus minimal invasive approaches. [ Time Frame: participants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 3-4 weeks ]
| Estimated Enrollment: | 206 |
| Study Start Date: | March 2013 |
| Estimated Primary Completion Date: | December 2015 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure) |
| Arms | Assigned Interventions |
|---|---|
|
Active Comparator: Angio-guided arm
In this arm will be included the patient randomized to a Angiography-guided surgical revascularization strategy.
|
Procedure: Surgical revascularization
The final intervention (surgical revascularization) will be the same for both arms.
|
|
Experimental: FFR-guided arm
In this arm will be included the patient randomized to a FFR-guided surgical revascularization strategy.
|
Procedure: Surgical revascularization
The final intervention (surgical revascularization) will be the same for both arms.
|
