MICRA-HYBRID Trial: A Randomized Controlled Trial of 'Multivessel Minimally Invasive Coronary Bypass Grafting as HYBRID Revascularization Versus Conventional Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting'
The MICRA-HYBRID trial is a prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled study comparing multivessel hybrid coronary revascularization (HCR) as minimally invasive arterial bypass grafting to left-sided coronary targets (LAD and LCx) plus PCI of the RCA versus conventional off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) via median sternotomy in patients with three-vessel coronary artery disease. The primary goal is to evaluate whether multivessel-HCR provides superior 30-day textbook clinical outcomes (mortality, MI, stroke, re-exploration for bleeding, and other complications) while improving perioperative recovery and long-term cardiovascular outcomes.
• Patients with three-vessel disease (either angiographic stenoses \>70% or a fractional flow reserve value ≤0.80)
• Left main diameter stenosis ≥50% or a left main intravascular ultrasound minimal luminal area of ≤4.5 mm2 or fractional flow reserve value ≤0.80 combined with significant CAD of the right coronary artery
