“…This systematic review and meta-analysis examined the long-term implications of POAF in patients after all types of cardiac operations patients, because previous reviews have only include patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting. 2,7 The number of patients and studies included is large, and the results are statistically significant with narrow CIs. Cautious interpretation of unadjusted outcomes is warranted, however, particularly in light of the high degree of heterogeneity between studies.…”

“…These results confirm that POAF can no longer be understood as a benign, self-limiting complication of cardiac surgical intervention. 2 It is not clear why patients with new onset POAF after cardiac operations have worse outcomes. One possibility is that POAF occurs in sicker, frailer patients and is therefore a surrogate for increased death.…”

“…POAF is a frequently encountered complication following cardiac procedures, with incidence rates ranging from 20% to 40% (32,33). In a meta-analysis involving 155,575 patients, POAF incidence occurred in 36,988 patients, with an incidence rate of 23.7% (34).…”
