Özet:

 


Objective: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is seen very
common after cardiac surgery. Postoperative AF occurrence increases mortality
and morbidity. Deterioration of clinical condition of the patients results
prolongation of hospital stay and increases economic burden. Many risk factors
that have an impact on the development of postoperative AF are known. Low
vitamin D level has been added to these factors in recent years. Blood serum
levels of vitamin D is varied seasonally. Therefore, these factors can be
expected to have a seasonal effect on development of postoperative AF. The aim
of this study is to investigate the presence of annual features of
postoperative AF. 


Method: This study is a retrospective analysis of
patients who developed atrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass graft
surgery in Cardiovascular Surgery Department of Sivas Cumhuriyet University
between 2017 and 2019 years. The study started after decision of Sivas
Cumhuriyet University Local Ethics Committee No. 2019-04/04. Preoperative,
intraoperative and postoperative parameters of the patients were evaluated. 39 patients
who developed atrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass graft surgery
included the study. Statistical analyses were performed according to the
seasons of atrial fibrillation which developed after coronary artery bypass
grafting. 


Results: Postoperative AF
development is observed seasonally most often in winter and less in summer.
However, the seasonal incidence is similar in autumn and spring. On the other
hand, postoperative AF was observed more frequently in males (69,2%) than
females (30,8%).









Conclusions: Postoperative
atrial fibrillation showed a seasonal difference. This difference supports the
relationship between vitamin D deficiency/insufficiency and postoperative AF
development.
