Colchicine reduces postoperative atrial fibrillation: results of the Colchicine for the Prevention of the Postpericardiotomy Syndrome (COPPS) atrial fibrillation substudy.
BACKGROUND Inflammation and pericarditis may be contributing factors for postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF), and both are potentially affected by antiinflammatory drugs and colchicine, which has been shown to be safe and efficacious for the prevention of pericarditis and the postpericardiotomy syndrome (PPS). The aim of the Colchicine for the Prevention of the Post-Pericardiotomy Syndrome...

متن کاملColchicine for the Prevention of Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation A New Indication for a Very Old Drug?
Atrial fibrillation after cardiac surgery (postoperative atrial fibrillation [POAF]) is a common problem, affecting 10% to 50% of all cardiac surgery patients, with the risks of POAF increasing as a function of patient age and the complexity of the surgery performed. POAF is associated with increased length of hospital stay, increased risk of comorbid conditions, and increased risk of mortality...

Background: The occurrence of Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is linked to an increased inflam-matory response after cardiac surgery that is significantly decreased by anti-inflammatory treatments. The present study aimed at administrating Colchicine as a way to reduce the incidence of post- Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) atrial fibrillation. Methods: In this double-blind, parallel clinical tria...
