Despite proven blood transfusion benefits, aprotinin may be underused in coronary artery bypass grafting. Reluctance to use aprotinin may stem from safety concerns. The current objective was to evaluate clinical outcomes (mortality, myocardial infarction, renal failure, stroke, atrial fibrillation) in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting who receive aprotinin by performing a quantitative overview of published, randomized, controlled trials.
