Atrial Fibrillation Clinical Trial
Official title:
Effect of Thoracic Epidural Analgesia for Thoracic Surgery on Arrhythiogenesis
Thoracic epidural anesthesia and analgesia for patients undergoing lung resection can reduce the occurrence of AF if it is continued for six postoperative days instead of just three.

Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Occurrence of AF | Every day, for the first 6 postoperative days, the investigators will record an ECG of the patient, and look after for any presence of AF | 6 postoperative days | No |
Secondary | Quality of analgesia | The investigators will record the quality of analgesia, as it can be measured with VAS, for the 6 first postoperative days for all patients | 6 postoperative days | No |
