ABSTRACT
Abstract Cardiac arrhythmias and requirement for permanent pacemaker (PPM) post open-heart surgery are some of the complications that can contribute to significant morbidities postoperatively and delay in normal recovery if not treated promptly. The reported rate of a PPM following isolated, elective coronary artery bypass grafting is < 1%, while following aortic or mitral valve surgery it is reported to be < 5%. There are several perioperative factors that can contribute to the increased likelihood of PPM requirement including preoperative rhythm, severity and location of cardiac ischaemia, perioperative variables, and the cardiac procedures performed. Optimization of such factors can possibly lead to a lower rate of PPM and, therefore, a lower rate of complications. This literature review focuses on PPM following each procedural type and how to minimize it.
