Ischemic preconditioning may mitigate arrhythmia risk via preserved HRV after CABG; extends RCT evidence on autonomic protection.
Does ischemic preconditioning attenuate the impairment of heart rate variability and reduce postoperative arrhythmias in CABG patients?
Ischemic preconditioning during CABG attenuates postoperative impairment of cardiac autonomic regulation and reduces postoperative arrhythmias.
