Outcomes in Early Postoperative Versus Late New-Onset Atrial Fibrillation After Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting.

ABSTRACT:

Background

It is unclear whether new-onset postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) early after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is associated with a similar risk of adverse outcomes as new-onset atrial fibrillation occurring later after CABG.

Methods

All patients treated with CABG in Sweden from 2007 to 2020 were investigated.
