  • Title: New treatments for perioperative cardiac arrhythmias.
    Author: Hastings LA, Balser JR.
    Journal: Anesthesiol Clin North Am; 2003 Sep; 21(3):569-86. PubMed ID: 14562566.
    Abstract:
    Cardiac arrhythmias remain a major source of morbidity, mortality, and prolonged postoperative hospital stay in surgical patients. Recent studies in patients experiencing out-of-hospital cardiac arrest have expanded our knowledge in the management of cardiac arrhythmias. Future advances require additional studies focused on the unique proarrhythmic substrates in surgical patients, to provide a clear rationale for antiarrhythmic drug therapy in the perioperative period.
