Why the study?
Does insulin-enhanced cardioplegia reduce postoperative atrial fibrillation in high-risk patients undergoing urgent CABG?
Does insulin-enhanced cardioplegia reduce postoperative atrial fibrillation in high-risk patients undergoing urgent CABG?
Insulin-enhanced cardioplegia does not reduce the incidence of postoperative atrial fibrillation or other arrhythmias in high-risk patients undergoing urgent CABG.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Does not support insulin-enhanced cardioplegia to prevent postoperative AF in urgent CABG; confirms neutral effect on arrhythmias in this high-risk population.
Hynninen et al. (2001) studied this question.
