Abstract
Blood flow increases from single to double and up to triple sequential grafts. Single grafts directed to diagonals have the lowest flow. Graft blood flows are higher in male versus female patients. Single, double, and triple saphenous vein grafts have similar pulsatility indexes. Pulsatility index of grafts to the right coronary system is significantly higher than that of grafts to the left coronary system.
