- Abstract
<bold>Background: </bold>Despite several studies comparing off- and on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), the effectiveness and outcomes of off-pump CABG still remain uncertain.<bold>Methods: </bold>In this registry-based study, we assessed 8163 patients who underwent isolated CABG between 2014 and 2016. Propensity score matching (PSM), inverse probability of weighting (IPW) and covariate adjustment were performed to correct for and minimize selection bias.<bold>Results: </bold>The overall mean age of the patients was 62 years, and 25.7% were women. Patients who underwent off-pump CABG had shorter length of hospitalization (p < 0.001), intubation time (p = 0.003) and length of ICU admission (p < 0.001). Off-pump CABG was associated with higher risk of 30-days mortality (OR: 1.7; 95% CI 1.09-2.65; p = 0.019) in unadjusted analysis. After covariate adjustment and matching (PSM and IPW), this difference was not statistically significant. After an average of 36.1 months follow-up, risk of MACCE and all-cause mortality didn't have significant differences in both surgical methods by adjusting with IPW (HR: 1.03; 95% CI 0.87-1.24; p = 0.714; HR: 0.91; 95% CI 0.73-1.14; p = 578, respectively).<bold>Conclusion: </bold>Off-pump and on-pump techniques have similar 30-day mortality (adjusted, PSM and IPW). Off-pump surgery is probably more cost-effective in short term; however, mid-term survival and MACCE trends in both surgical methods are comparable.
