2026-08-04
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) is a common complication of cardiac surgery with POAF susceptibility thought to be primarily the result of pre-existing structural atrial disease, specifically fibrosis. We tested this hypothesis directly by combining preoperative imaging of atrial fibrosis with continuous physiological monitoring before POAF onset. <h4>Methods</h4> This prospective si...
