Cardioprotection with Adenosine during Coronary Revascularization

Postoperative cardiac dysfunction is a common cause of mortality and morbidity associated with CABG Surgery. Adenosine enhances tolerance of the myocardium to ischemic arrest. Therefore, the study on adenosine pre-treatment as an adjunct to cardioplegia in patients undergoing CABG will definitely help to provide better myocardial protection for better postoperative outcome.
