Atrial Arrhythmias After Lung Transplantation
Background—Atrial arrhythmias (AAs) including atrial fibrillation (AF) and atrial tachycardia (AT) are often observed after cardiothoracic surgery. Our aim was to evaluate the prevalence and mechanism of AAs after lung transplantation. Methods and Results—All patients (n 127) after bilateral sequential lung transplantation followed at our institution over 20 years were included. All patients re...
متن کاملIncidence, Risk Factors, Prognosis, and Electrophysiological Mechanisms of Atrial Arrhythmias after Lung Transplantation.
OBJECTIVE To investigate incidence and timing, risk factors, prognostic significance, and electrophysiological mechanisms of atrial arrhythmia (AA) after lung transplantation. BACKGROUND Although new-onset AA is common after thoracic surgery and is associated with poorer outcomes, prognostic and mechanistic data is sparse in lung transplant populations. METHOD A total of 293 consecutive iso...
متن کاملPost-transplant diabetes mellitus in lung transplant recipients: incidence and risk factors.

متن کاملAspergillus infections in lung transplant recipients: risk factors and outcome.
This retrospective study of 251 lung transplant patients aimed to determine the prevalence, clinical presentation and mortality of Aspergillus infection in order to define specific risk factors and to compare survival in patients with and without infection. Aspergillus was isolated from 86 (33%) cases, which involved colonisation (n = 50), tracheobronchial lesions (n = 17) or invasive aspergill...
