Postoperative evolution of preoperative arrhythmia patients as opposed to normal sinus rhythm patients (
).
| Postoperative evolution | Arrhythmia Lot patients | Sinus rhythm Lot patients | value |
| Increased inotropic support needs | 75.7% (171) | 63.9% (571) | | Reintervention | 8.0% (18) | 6.8% (61) |
| Mechanical ventilation > 24 h | 7.5% (17) | 5.5% (49) |
| MSOF | 2.2% (5) | 0.9% (8) | | Neurological complications CVA > 72 h | 0.4% (1) | 0.4% (4) | | Transient CVA | 0% | 0.9% (8) | | Coma > 24 h | 0.9% (2) | 0.7% (6) | | Acute renal failure | 7.1% (16) | 3.8% (34) |
| ICU LOS (days) | 7.27 ± 5.056 | 5.53 ± 3.747 | | Sepsis | 2.7% (6) | 1.1% (10) | | Mortality | 4.0% (9) | 1.2% (11) |
