Summary
To explore surgical strategies that reduce perioperative neurologic complications in cardiovascular surgery, with the aim of improving perioperative outcomes and quality of life while reducing the socioeconomic burden. Specifically: This multicenter, randomized controlled clinical trial will evaluate the benefits of a novel aortic no-touch technique in reducing perioperative silent brain infarction(SBI) among patients undergoing surgical treatment for coronary artery disease. The findings are expected to provide a safe and effective myocardial revascularization strategy for individuals at high risk of cerebral ischemia.
