Does posterior pericardiotomy reduce the incidence of atrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass grafting surgery?
A best evidence topic in cardiac surgery was written according to a structured protocol. The question addressed was whether posterior pericardiotomy (PP) reduces the incidence of atrial fibrillation (AF) after coronary artery bypass grafting surgery. Twelve papers were found using the reported search, of which seven represented the best evidence to answer the clinical question. The authors, jou...
متن کاملDo Statins Reduce Atrial Fibrillation After Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting?
Background: Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is a common postoperative complication after coronary artery bypass grafting. There is contradictory evidence as to whether pre-operative statin use lowers the incidence of postoperative AF. This study aimed to assess whether pre operative statin therapy prevents the post-operative AF. Methods: In this retrospective cohort study we used a propensity score-ma...
متن کاملAtrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass grafting
Postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) is the most common complication following cardiac surgery with an incidence of 18.5–40 % [1–4]. It is important to prevent POAF because it can lead to hemodynamic instability and the risk of cerebral infarction. Various factors are involved in the onset of POAF, among which those most strongly correlated with it are inflammation, fibrosis, and the fluid ...
متن کاملAtrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass grafting without cardiopulmonary bypass.
OBJECTIVE Atrial fibrillation is the most common complication after heart surgery. It rarely has a fatal outcome but causes patient instability, prolongs hospital stay, or even is the reason for perioperative infarction. Although conventional coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with cardiopulmonary bypass has excellent short-term and long-term results, the number of coronary operations on a ...
متن کاملPredictive factors of atrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass grafting
Objective To analyze predictive demographic and perioperative variables of postoperative atrial fibrillation in patients who underwent exclusively coronary artery bypass grafting. Methods This was a retrospective cohort. We randomly selected 105 medical records of patients who underwent exclusively coronary artery bypass grafting in 2014. Demographic, clinical (preoperative and immediate post...
