Five-Year Outcomes after On-Pump and Off-Pump Coronary-Artery Bypass

A total of 2203 patients at 18 medical centers were randomly assigned to undergo on-pump or off-pump CABG. Mortality at 5 years was significantly lower with on-pump CABG than with off-pump CABG. No secondary outcomes indicated a benefit of off-pump surgery.
