Abstrakt: Flow probes are being used for intraoperative assessment of anastomotic quality during off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). We conducted a survey with the cooperation of 19 international surgeons to assess the ability of surgeons to detect anastomotic errors by evaluating mean flow and flow waveform morphology.
