Prevention of Postop Atrial Fibrillation Through Intraoperative Inducibility of Atrial Fibrillation and Amiodarone Treatment

Официальное название

Assessment of Intra-Operative Atrial Fibrillation Inducibility As a Screening Tool to Prevent Post-Operative Atrial Fibrillation With Prophylaxis Amiodarone

Обзор

Patients undergoing first time cardiac surgery will undergo rapid atrial pacing prior to initiation of cardiopulmonary bypass to screen for AF inducibility. Patients with inducible AF will be randomized to prophylactic amiodarone treatment versus no treatment. Patients who are not inducible to AF will be treated with standard post-operative care. Patients will be monitored post-operatively to explore the value of intraoperative inducibility of AF to predict POAF and to evaluate whether the combination of intraoperative inducibility and precision amiodarone therapy is effective at reducing the incidence of POAF

Подробное описание

In the operating room, as part of the open heart surgery, the surgeon will stimulate the superior right atrium section of the heart with a pacemaker for 30 seconds just prior to starting the heart and lung bypass machine. The stimulation is done to see how sensitive the heart is to developing atrial fibrillation. This test result will be documented. The procedure will only take 60 seconds out of the entire operation. It does not involve taking any samples of tissue or blood. Following this step, if the heart demonstrates atrial fibrillation for at least 30 seconds then the participant will then be randomized to either receive the prophylactic drug treatment using Amiodarone or to no prophylactic drug administration. The participant has a 50% chance of receiving the FDA approved study drug Amiodarone. The study arms consist of prophylactic drug administration with Amiodarone, No prophylactic drug administration, or no atrial fibrillation reaction after stimulation with the pacemaker. The remainder of the surgical procedure will not be affected, and will follow routine surgical practice.

Вмешательства

• Препарат Amiodarone Injection
  Patients stratified into the amiodarone study group were administered amiodarone until day of discharge. Amiodarone administration began intraoperatively with the administration of a 150 mg IV amiodarone loading bolus prior to separation from coronary pulmonary bypass, followed by 1 mg/min IV amiodarone for six hours (360 mg), then 0.5 mg/min IV amiodarone for 18 hours (540 mg), then transitioned to 400 mg oral amiodarone twice a day until discharge. In total, patients in the amiodarone treatmen
• Устройство Intraoperative Rapid Atrial Pacing
  Intraoperative rapid atrial pacing for 30 seconds after cannulation and prior to initiation of cardiopulmonary bypass by having the surgeon attach insulated forceps to the superior right atrial free wall and connected to a temporary pacemaker to burst pace at a rate of 800 bpm for 30 seconds (pulse width 1.0 ms, output: 20 mA) Patients are monitored for successful atrial fibrillation induction defined as 30 seconds of sustained atrial fibrillation on ECG.
