Effect of Genetic Polymorphism on the Occurrence of Post-Operative Atrial Fibrillation After Coronory Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) Surgery in Egyptian Patients Receiving Beta Blockers

Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation (POAF) is one of the most common complications following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) occurring to 20% - 40% of patients. It is associated with prolonged hospitalization, increased hospital costs, increased complications and mortality rate.

Despite the use of Beta Blockers, approximately 20% of patients develop atrial fibrillation following CABG surgery, suggesting a role for polymorphism in the genes The aim of the present study is to determine the minor allele frequency of some of the genes that affect the beta blockers' response and to determine the association between polymorphism in these genes and the occurrence of postoperative atrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass grafting in Egyptian patients receiving perioperative beta blockers.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Occurrence of Atrial fibrillation
Time Frame: within 6 days after the operation
Atrial fibrillation based on postoperative electrocardiogram. AF diagnostic criteria will include absence of discrete P waves, the RR intervals follow unrepetitive form and the ranges of ventricular rate usually between 90 and 170 beats/min.
within 6 days after the operation
