Summary
This study tested whether removing a small heart ligament (ligament of Marshall) during coronary bypass surgery can prevent a common complication: atrial fibrillation (irregular heartbeat). 220 high-risk adults were randomly assigned to standard bypass surgery alone or with the extra ligament removal. The goal was to see if the added step safely reduces irregular heartbeat episodes in the first week after surgery.
