- Original description
Supraventricular arrhythmias complicate more than 40% of cardiac surgeries and are associated with an increased risk of bleeding, stroke, heart failure, and death. Preventing the occurrence of these arrhythmias is a major challenge. This study aims to investigate risk factors and protective factors regarding atrial fibrillation and other iatrogenic cardiac arrhythmias after cardiac surgery, particularly innovative anesthetic strategies such as stellar ganglion blockade which have been recently implemented in our center.Read full original descriptionShow less
Risk Factors of Atrial Fibrillation After Cardiac Surgery
Supraventricular arrhythmias complicate more than 40% of cardiac surgeries and are associated with an increased risk of bleeding, stroke, heart failure, and death. Preventing the occurrence of these arrhythmias is a major challenge. This study aims to investigate risk factors and protective factors regarding atrial fibrillation and other iatrogenic cardiac arrhythmias after cardiac surgery, particularly innovative anesthetic strategies such as stellar ganglion blockade which have been recently implemented in our center.
Inclusion: age >18; having undergone a scheduled cardiac surgery in the study center; having agreed to the reuse of their hospital care data.
Exclusion: Atrial fibrillation at the admission in hospital.
