Abstract
Carperitide has a potent inhibitory effect on the vasoconstriction mediated by different vasoconstrictors in human internal thoracic artery and gastroepiploic artery grafts. The use of carperitide in patients during and after coronary artery bypass surgery is favored for the prevention and reversal of graft spasm.
