Impacto das Técnicas Minimamente Invasivas na Revascularização Miocárdica: Uma Comparação com Métodos Tradicionais

Abstract

The objectives of this research are to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and cost of minimally invasive techniques in comparison to traditional methods of myocardial revascularization. Furthermore, it aims to identify the potential advantages and disadvantages of each approach through a comprehensive analysis based on robust scientific evidence. This study is an integrative literature review, which seeks to analyze the impact of minimally invasive techniques on myocardial revascularization, comparing them with traditional methods. The research was conducted in the databases Google Scholar, Scielo, and PubMed, using the descriptors "Myocardial Revascularization," "Minimally Invasive Surgical Procedures," "Infarction," and "Intraoperative Complications." Articles published between 2020 and 2024, in Portuguese or English, with full access and direct relevance to the topic were included. Theses, dissertations, paid or incomplete articles, and publications outside the specified period were excluded. The review revealed that minimally invasive techniques for myocardial revascularization offer advantages such as shorter recovery times, reduced complications, and shorter hospital stays compared to traditional methods. However, long-term efficacy still requires further studies. Despite the higher initial cost, economic benefits may be offset due to the reduced need for hospitalization and complication management. The choice of method should be personalized, considering the clinical characteristics of each patient. Therefore, minimally invasive techniques for myocardial revascularization demonstrate significant benefits in terms of faster recovery, lower incidence of complications, and shorter hospital stays when compared to traditional methods. However, the need for long-term studies remains to validate the durability and safety of these procedures. Thus, the choice between techniques should be based on the clinical profile of each patient, aiming to optimize outcomes and improve quality of life.
