Abstract:Objective
The purpose of this study was to determine whether new-onset transient postoperative atrial fibrillation (TPAF) affects mortality rates after abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair and to identify predictors for the development of TPAF.
Methods
Patients who underwent open aortic repair or endovascular aortic repair for a principal diagnosis AAA were retrospectively identified using the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project-State Inpatient Database (Florida) for 2007 to 2011 and monitored longitud… Show more
“…Data from 46,928 patients who underwent vascular surgery were available from 4 studies over a mean follow-up of 29.6 AE 14.2 months. 19,41,47,57 The absolute risk increase for mortality was 8.5 per 100 patient-years for patients with perioperative AF (23.8 vs 15.3 per 100 patient-years; RR: 1.7, 95% CI: 1.2-2.4, I2 ¼ 93%).…”

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is frequently reported as a complication of noncardiac surgery. It is unknown whether new-onset perioperative AF is associated with an increased risk of stroke and death beyond the perioperative period. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the long-term risks of stroke and mortality associated with new-onset perioperative AF after noncardiac surgery. Methods: MEDLINE and EMBASE were searched from inception to March 2020 for studies reporting on the association between R ESUM E Contexte : La fibrillation atriale (FA) est une arythmie fr equemment attribu ee à une complication d'une chirurgie non cardiaque.

“…Furthermore, a study on the effects of TPAF on AAA has recently been reported. 9 Thus, patients with a diagnosis of abdominal aortic dissection or aneurysm of the aorta or its branches were excluded to include only patients with occlusive disease as an indication for surgery. Also excluded were those with a pre-existing diagnosis of AF to ensure that all cases were new onset.…”

“…1 It was then further classified as TPAF or no-TPAF using the same method the authors have used in previous studies. [8][9][10] Two criteria were used to identify patients who developed TPAF. First, the patient should not have had a prior known history of AF (no AF in the 1 year before surgery and no AF present on admission).…”

“…Although it has been thought to be relatively benign and self-limited in the noncardiothoracic setting, its deleterious long-term effects have recently been recognized to extend beyond the postoperative period in both cardiothoracic and noncardiothoracic settings. [4][5][6][7][8][9][10] In fact, it has been shown that the association between perioperative AF and long-term risk of stroke is stronger for noncardiac than for cardiac surgical procedures. 4 The literature on the effects of postoperative AF in the realm of vascular surgery is sparse.…”
TPAF after revascularization of AAB is associated with increased LOS, inpatient mortality, 1-year mortality, and hospital readmissions. Strategies to identify patients at risk for development of TPAF and implementation of appropriate prophylactic measures may improve surgical outcomes and reduce cost of care.
