Perioperative management of new-onset atrial fibrillation after cardiac surgery / 中国胸心血管外科临床杂志

ABSTRACT

@#New-onset atrial fibrillation (NOAF) is the most common complication after cardiac surgery. Postoperative atrial fibrillation is traditionally believed to a benign arrhythmia secondary to inflammation or surgical stimulation. However, a number of studies showed that patients with NOAF had a substantially increased adverse cardiovascular events. Therefore, effective treatment is of great significance. This study aims to review recent research of the perioperative management of NOAF.
