Abstract
“Patients do not want operations”
- No one wants any operation
- Patient’s decision on CABG depends who presents
information and its balanceno patient wants ‘cracking the
chest’ if the same effect can be achieved with PCI
- But most patients want the best treatment and many will
accept an operation if it increases survival by 5% (or
reduces risk of mortality by 1/3) within 3-5 years
and allows them to get on with life without repeat interventions
and the worry of ‘failed stents’.
