Madharry,

I was under the impression that the trial was over (in the sense that enrolment has stopped; and that at least 30 days have elapsed since the last patient was enrolled, but we haven't yet reached the 180 day mark for all of them. Latter milestone will be reached soon enough to be analysed and presented at AHA mid November.

if i were getting cabg and a valve operation i would want to be given this drug.

I'd want Pex for either CABG alone or both CABG and valve. It prevents deaths - just not more than 30% of the expected CABG deaths at 30 days. I suspect that would be the choice of any informed patient.
