In this prospective, double-blind, randomized controlled trial, 160 patients undergoing elective OPCAB surgery were enrolled between March 2018 and February 2020. After primary suture of the aortocoronary anastomosis, an area of hemorrhage was identified, and patients received either CHM or GHM (n = 80, each). Study endpoints were the following: proportion of successful intraoperative hemostasis and time required for hemostasis overall postoperative bleeding, proportion of transfusion of blood products, and surgical revision for bleeding.
