Presentation Transcript

  1. STICH CABG Objective • To determine whether surgery plus medical management or medical management alone improve outcomes in CABG patients Study Design • 1212 patients with an ejection fraction ≤35% and CAD disease amenable to CABG were randomly assigned to medical therapy alone (n=602) or medical therapy plus CABG (n=610) Medical Therapy with or without CABG Surgery in Patients with Ischemic Cardiomyopathy: Results of the STICH Trial

  2. STICH CABG Outcomes • Primary outcome was the rate of death from any cause • Secondary outcomes: Rates of CV death, death from any cause or hospitalization for CV causes p<0.001 Results p=0.12 p=0.05

  3. STICH CABG Conclusions • These findings suggest that assessment of myocardial viability does not provide incremental independent information in identifying patients with coronary artery disease and LV dysfunction who will have the greatest survival benefit from adding CABG • Assessment of myocardial viability should not be the sole deciding factor in selecting the best therapy for patients in this population Study Limitations • Lack of randomization for viability testing • Small number of patients • Small proportion of patients who were judged not to have substantial viability
