Key result
In patients undergoing off-pump CABG, chronic renal failure (OR 3.31; 95% CI 1.05-10.46) and the use of venous-origin grafts alone (OR 9.81; 95% CI 1.13-85.35) were independent predictors of POAF.
Why the study?
Postoperative atrial fibrillation poses a significant threat after CABG, prompting the need to describe its incidence and identify predictors in patients undergoing off-pump CABG.

May support targeted POAF monitoring after off-pump CABG; leaves open whether predictors are modifiable.

What are the independent predictor factors for postoperative atrial fibrillation in patients undergoing off-pump CABG?

In patients undergoing off-pump CABG, chronic renal failure and the exclusive use of venous grafts are independent predictors of postoperative atrial fibrillation.
Vidotti et al. (2019) conducted a cohort in Postoperative atrial fibrillation after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (n=280). Chronic renal failure and use of venous-origin graft alone vs. Absence of these risk factors was evaluated on Onset of postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) (OR 3.31, 95% CI 1.05-10.46, p=0.042). In patients undergoing off-pump CABG, chronic renal failure (OR 3.31; 95% CI 1.05-10.46) and the use of venous-origin grafts alone (OR 9.81; 95% CI 1.13-85.35) were independent predictors of POAF.
