Prevention of Dysrhythmias on the Cardiac Intensive Care Unit - Does Maintenance of High-normal Serum Potassium Levels Matter

The TIGHT-K STUDY. Prevention of Dysrhythmias on the Cardiac Intensive Care Unit - Does Maintenance of High-normal Serum Potassium Levels Matter

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 5 Nov 2024

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a strategy of maintaining serum potassium levels at ≥3.6 mEq/L is non-inferior to a strategy of usual treatment (≥4.5 mEq/L) on the occurrence of new onset atrial fibrillation after cardiac surgery (AFACS) in patients undergoing isolated coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery.
