BackgroundBackground
Saphenous vein grafts (SVG) are the most common conduit used in coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery
Per patient rates of vein graft failure (VGF): 25-45%
Depends on: Population When measured How defined

BackgroundBackground
Little is know about the relationship between vein graft failure and subsequent clinical outcomes
ObjectivesObjectives
To assess long-term (5 years) clinical outcomes of patients enrolled in the PREVENT-IV trial
To assess the relationship between vein graft failure assessed by coronary angiography 12-18 months post-CABG and 5-year clinical outcomes

MethodsMethodsMethodsMethods
We assessed the long-term clinical outcomes of patients enrolled in the PREVENT-IV trial
Follow-up was performed by mail or telephone survey
Clinical outcomes included death, MI, and repeat revascularization through 5 years
All events were confirmed by review of medical records
MethodsMethods
Vein graft failure was assessed by quantitative coronary angiography and defined as a ≥75% stenosis anywhere in the vein graft
Vein graft failure was classified both per patient and per graft
Patients who had clinical events or died before angiographic follow-up were excluded from these analyses
Statistical AnalysisStatistical Analysis
Cumulative event rates for clinical outcomes were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method
Covariate adjusted analyses of outcomes were assessed using the Cox proportional hazards model
Logistic regression was used to assess per patient graft failure outcomes
Statistical AnalysisStatistical Analysis
Individual graft failure rates were adjusted for intrapatient correlation using general estimating equation techniques
The Cox proportional hazards model (with covariates for the number of grafts implanted and the proportion failed) was used to assess the relationship between graft failure and clinical outcomes

The composite of death, MI, or revascularization occurred more frequently among patients who had vein graft failure compared with those who had did not
Adjusted HR 1.79, 95% CI 1.40-2.28; P<0.001
There was no relationship between vein graft failure and death / MI or death in either per patient or per graft analyses

There was no impact on the relationship between vein graft failure and 5-year clinical outcomes based on:
Graft Target (LAD vs other)
Target Artery Quality (Good vs other)
Graft Quality (Good vs other)
IMA Failure (Yes vs no)
LimitationsLimitations
A causal relationship between vein graft failure and clinical outcomes cannot be proven. We assessed only associations
Angiographic follow-up was protocol driven and may have influence revascularization rates
ConclusionsConclusions
Vein graft failure 1 year after CABG is strongly associated with an increased risk of death, MI, or revascularization at 5 years
This association is driven by early revascularization with no association between vein graft failure and death or MI
Further investigation of the appropriate management of patients with angiographic VGF post-CABG is needed
