“…Despite this, it is this reviewer's observation that few physicians or hospitals routinely record right and left arm pressures. Although the consequences associated with failure to appreciate a subclavian stenosis proximal to the LIMA origin (the overwhelming majority of subclavian stenoses) include severe ischemia and occasional perioperative or late infarction [2], few cardiac surgical programs routinely record this simple and cheap noninvasive test. While surgeons typically do measure flow in the LIMA prior to implantation, knowing in advance the presence of inflow obstruction greatly changes the algorithm of pre‐, intra‐, and perioperative patient management.…”
