- Study compares intermittent classical blood cardioplegia and single-dose modified Del Nido cardioplegia in CABG patients.
- 40 patients divided into two groups: Group 1 (classical) and Group 2 (Del Nido).
- No significant differences in demographic data, ACC time, CPB time, bypassed vessels, drainage, inotrope requirement, or GFR.
- Postoperative lactate levels were lower in Group 2 (Del Nido) compared to Group 1 (p <0.001).
- Extubation time was shorter in Group 2 (Del Nido) compared to Group 1 (p <0.001).
- Conclusion: Modified Del Nido cardioplegia offers better patient stability and myocardial protection post-CABG.
