Risk Factors of Atrial Fibrillation After Cardiac Surgery, Prospective Observational Cohort Study

Sponsor: Centre Hospitalier Régional Metz-Thionville

Summary

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.
