Clinical Trial Summary

The objective of this study is to show that ranolazine is a safe, viable and potent alternative for post-operative atrial fibrillation suppression in patients undergoing cardiac surgery


Clinical Trial Description

A single center, double blind, prospective, randomized study for patients who are scheduled for elective cardiac surgery (CABG, or valve or CABG and valve). All patients who meet criteria will be prospectively enrolled in a randomized fashion. Patients enrolled will be assigned to receive twice daily identical capsules containing either placebo or ranolazine. Study drug will be initiated 2 days before surgery. Patients will receive study drug throughout their hospitalization and be kept on it for a full 2 weeks post operatively. Patients will be seen in 2 weeks and receive a 30 day follow up contact visit. ;
