Analysis of the ESC/EACTS 2020 Atrial Fibrillation Guidelines with Perioperative Implications
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia worldwide with an individual lifetime risk of approximately 37% in the United States. Broadly defined as a supraventricular tachyarrhythmia with disorganized atrial activation, AF results in an increased risk of stroke, heart failure (HF), valvular heart disease (VHD), impaired quality of life and confers a significant burden to the health of individuals and society. AF in the perioperative setting is common and a significant source of perioperative morbidity and mortality worldwide.

Single-Dose del Nido Cardioplegia Compared With Standard Cardioplegia During Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting at a Veterans Affairs Hospital
Tex Heart Inst J. 2021 Jan 1;48(1):e196981. doi: 10.14503/THIJ-19-6981.ABSTRACTDel Nido cardioplegic solution (DNC), used chiefly in pediatric patients, rapidly induces prolonged cardiac arrest during cardiac surgery. To determine whether surgical outcomes after coronary artery bypass grafting in a United States military veteran population differed when DNC was used instead of our standard Plegisol cardioplegia, we retrospectively reviewed 155 consecutive operations performed from July 2016 through June 2017. Del Nido cardioplegia was used to induce cardiac arrest in 70 patients, and Plegisol in 85. Compared with the Plegi...
