Summary
This study tested a two-part approach to prevent a common heart-rhythm problem after cardiac surgery. 242 adults having coronary bypass surgery received a preventive dose of amiodarone and a small surgical opening in the heart's lining. The goal was to see if this combination could lower the risk of new atrial fibrillation, a condition linked to higher rates of stroke and other complications.
