Objective: To determine the effect of #papaverine in the blood flow of internal #mammaryartery in patientsundergoing #coronaryartery bypass #graftingsurgery.

Study Design: Quasi-experimental study.

Place & Duration: #Cardiacsurgery departments of Punjab Institute of #Cardiology in Lahore, Pakistan from 1stMarch 2015 to 1st November 2015.

Methods: This descriptive case series study enrolled 50 consecutive patients who had undergone elective coronary artery bypass grafting with #cardiopulmonarybypass (CPB) with use of papaverine in internal mammary artery, aged range 36-78 years were selected from cardiac surgery departments of Punjab Institute of Cardiology, Lahore, Pakistan from 1stMarch 2015 to 30th November 2015.
