title: [Hemodynamic collapse during off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting and optimization].
abstract: The present study addressed the incidence of unpredicted hemodynamic collapse in off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB). Since 1999, OPCAB was attempted in 114 patients without preoperative hemodynamic collapse to date. 95% patients of OPCAB were completed without percutaneous cardiopulmonary support (PCPS) and all patients were discharged. In this study, patients are divided into a prophase of 60 patients and an anaphase of 50 patients, in consideration of learning curve. As for the trouble in procedures, 12 patients of ventricular fibrillation, 6 patients of conversion to PCPS, 19 patients of bradycardia which were evaded in temporary pacing were observed. Patients with conversion to PCPS decreased in 5 patients (8%) in prophase and 1 patient (1.8%) in anaphase. Avoidance of hemodynamic collapse were prevention of ischemia by positive use of coronary perfusion, prophylactic intra-aortic balloon pumping (IABP) use for decrease of blood pressure, apical evacuation heart positioner for visual field security.
