Atrial fibrillation (AF) after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) is a common complication with potentially higher risk of adverse outcome and prolonged hospital stay.
To determine the impact of postoperative AF (POAF) on long-term outcome in a large cohort of patients who underwent CABG.
We conducted an observational cohort study of 989 patients who underwent isolated CABG with more than 5-year follow-up. Patient divided in two groups: patients with and without POAF.
In this study, atrial fibrillation developed after CABG in 156 patients (15.8%). Patients with POAF were generally older (P = 0.001) and presented more often with comorbidities including congestive heart failure (P = 0.001), hypertension (P = 0.001), peripheral vascular disease (P = 0.001), hyperlipidemia (P = 0.009), and renal failure (P = 0.001). Five-year mortality was observed in 23 (2.3%) patients. Patients with POAF had higher five-year mortality rate than those without POAF. Multivariate logistic analysis showed that AF after surgery has a strong effect on mortality (HR, 3.3; 95% CI, 0.04-10.8, P = 0.04) and morbidity rates (HR, 4.0; 95% CI, 2.35-6.96, P = 0.001).
Postoperative atrial fibrillation strongly predicts higher long-term mortality and morbidity following coronary artery bypass graft.
冠状动脉旁路移植术(CABG)后发生心房颤动(AF)是一种常见并发症,具有不良后果风险更高和住院时间延长的潜在风险。
确定术后房颤(POAF)对接受CABG的大量患者长期预后的影响。
我们对989例接受单纯CABG且随访超过5年的患者进行了一项观察性队列研究。患者分为两组:有POAF和无POAF的患者。
在本研究中,156例患者(15.8%)在CABG后发生心房颤动。有POAF的患者通常年龄较大(P = 0.001),更常出现合并症,包括充血性心力衰竭(P = 0.001)、高血压(P = 0.001)、外周血管疾病(P = 0.001)、高脂血症(P = 0.009)和肾衰竭(P = 0.001)。观察到23例(2.3%)患者5年死亡率。有POAF的患者5年死亡率高于无POAF的患者。多因素逻辑分析显示,术后房颤对死亡率(HR,3.3;95%CI,0.04 - 10.8,P = 0.04)和发病率(HR,4.0;95%CI,2.35 - 6.96,P = 0.001)有强烈影响。
冠状动脉旁路移植术后房颤强烈预示着更高的长期死亡率和发病率。
