Clinical Trial Summary

This study is planned to evaluate the effect of left posterior pericardiotomy for the prevention of postoperative atrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass grafting. Eligible patients will be randomized to be created or not to be created the left posterior pericardiotomy at the end of the operation, and the incidence of postoperative atrial fibrillation will be compared.


Clinical Trial Description

Postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) is a common complication after cardiac surgery, particularly after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), and is associated with prolonged in-hospital stay and increased adverse outcomes, including death and stroke. There is evidence that pericardial effusion can trigger the occurence of POAF. Therefore, this study is aimed to evaluate the effect of left posterior pericardiotomy for the prevention of POAF after CABG. Patients who are planned to undergo off-pump CABG will be randomized to be created or not to be created the left posterior pericardiotomy at the end of the operation, and the incidence of postoperative atrial fibrillation will be compared as the primary outcome. Secondary outcomes will include early clinical outcomes and hospital stay. ;
