Clinical Trial Summary

Post-operative new-onset atrial fibrillation (POAF) is one of the most common arrhythmias in adults after direct intracardiac surgery with extracorporeal circulation. The incidence of POAF in coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is approximately 30%. POAF can lead to an increased risk of complications such as stroke, heart failure, and acute kidney injury, which not only prolongs the patient's hospital stay, but also increases hospital costs and mortality. operation, extracorporeal circulation, and the patient's underlying conditions (such as age, gender, hypertension, and diabetes), which cause sympathetic activation, inflammatory response, and myocardial ischemia in the organism. The stellate ganglion block (SGB) regulates the sympathetic tone of the innervated nerves and thus the autonomic function of the body. SGB can effectively regulate the sympathetic-parasympathetic imbalance. Also, SGB may exert some anti-inflammatory effects. In this study, ultrasound-guided SGB was used in CABG patients to investigate its effect on the occurrence of POAF.
