Pharmacological interventions for preventing atrial fibrillation after lung surgery: systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSION: Current clinical evidence supports the effectiveness of pharmacological intervention with beta-blockers, amiodarone, magnesium sulfate, or calcium-channel blockers to reduce the incidence of POAF after lung surgery in patients with lung cancer. In the absence of contraindications, prophylaxis with beta-blockers seems to be the most effective of the treatments studied.PMID:36136141 | DOI:10.1007/s00228-022-03383-2

Cancers, Vol. 13, Pages 4012: Atrial Fibrillation after Lung Cancer Surgery: Prediction, Prevention, and Anticoagulation Management
rdinale Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common complication of the early postoperative period of various types of surgery, including that for lung cancer. Although induced by the homeostatic alterations related to surgery, there is evidence that it is not a mere stand-alone transitory event, but it represents a relevant complication of surgery, bearing considerable prognostic consequences. Different methods have therefore been explored to predict the occurrence of postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) and prevent it. In particular, the age among clinical factors, and N-terminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide ...
