Abstract
Forty-five male patients with planned coronary artery bypass operation were randomized in a double blind fashion to receive either 6 million kallikrein inactivator units of aprotinin (high-dose group), 2 million kallikrein inactivator units of aprotinin (low-dose group), or placebo (control group). Postoperative bleeding was significantly decreased in both aprotinin groups in comparison to that in the control group (590 ml [290 to 1800 ml] high-dose group and 650 ml [280 to 1900 ml] low-dose group versus 920 ml (350 to 2700 ml) control group, p < 0.001). There was no difference between the two aprotinin groups. The need for postoperative blood transfusion was significantly lower in the aprotinin groups (1.46 [0 to 4] blood units high-dose group and 1.65 [0 to 5] blood units low-dose group versus 2.43 [0 to 7] blood units control group, p < 0.05). All patients underwent coronary angiography between the seventh and twelfth postoperative day. No difference was found among the three groups in patency of vein grafts—93.8% in the high-dose group, 94.5% in the low-dose groups, and 93.3% in the control group. Therefore, aprotinin significantly reduced postoperative bleeding and transfusion requirement after coronary artery bypass grafting without influencing early graft patency.
