Key result
Right coronary artery disease (OR 2.67; 95% CI 1.14-6.23) and older age (OR 1.93 per decade) independently predicted the development of postoperative atrial dysrhythmias after CABG.

What factors predict the development of atrial dysrhythmias in adult patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting?
Odds Ratio: 2.67 (95% CI 1.14–6.23)
p-value: p=0.02
Older age and the presence of right coronary artery disease are significant predictors of postoperative atrial dysrhythmias in patients undergoing CABG.
Jong et al. (2000) conducted an observational in Coronary artery disease (n=162). Right coronary artery disease and older age vs. Absence of right coronary artery disease and younger age was evaluated on Postoperative atrial dysrhythmias (OR 2.67, 95% CI 1.14-6.23, p=0.02). Right coronary artery disease (OR 2.67; 95% CI 1.14-6.23) and older age (OR 1.93 per decade) independently predicted the development of postoperative atrial dysrhythmias after CABG.
