Abstract

Background: To evaluate the risks factors of atrial fibrillation (AF) following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).

Methods And Results: Twelve hundred patients subjected to CABG were included. Postoperative AF developed in 278 patients (23.2%). Statistical analysis identified 5 independent predictors of AF: advanced age, history of supraventricular arrhythmias, preoperative heart failure, operation with standard CABG technique and repeated revascularization.

Conclusions: Postoperative AF caused a significant increase in mortality and hospitalization length. There were 4 independent risk factors of postoperative AF. Administration of beta-blockers and the OPCAB (off-pump CABG) operating technique were identified as protective factors.
