INTRODUCTION: Atrial fibrillation is the main complication in the postoperative period of cardiovascular surgery. Its genesis is multifactorial, so its rapid identification to mitigate the associated risks is essential.
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the incidence of atrial fibrillation in patients undergoing co...
BACKGROUND: Significant advancements in heart failure therapy are occur through the use of Ventricular Assist Devices (VADs). Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death globally, affecting millions. Heart failure (HF) is a common condition, especially in patients over 65, and is linked to hig...
INTRODUCTION: Postoperative myocardial revascularization atrial fibrillation (POAF) is a clinical complication that affects about 30% of patients and its mechanisms of origin are still poorly understood. This fact makes it difficult to identify the patient at greatest risk for this arrhythmia. This missi...
