Heart rhythm problems after heart surgery
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at heart rhythm problems that may happen after heart surgery. It aims to see if how well the heart works before surgery can help predict these rhythm issues.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are going to have or have had heart surgery.
- You do not have an irregular heartbeat before the operation.

This trial looks at heart rhythm issues (especially atrial fibrillation) that can happen after certain heart procedures. It may help doctors better predict, prevent, or manage these rhythm problems after surgery.
This study looks at how often a fast, irregular heartbeat (atrial fibrillation) happens after heart valve or bypass surgery. Knowing this could help doctors take better care of patients after these procedures.
This trial studies whether measuring how the upper chambers of the heart work together can help predict dangerous heart rhythms after heart surgery. If you are in normal heart rhythm and not having mitral valve surgery, this study may help doctors better prevent complications.
This study looks at how often and how long an irregular heartbeat (atrial fibrillation) happens after planned open-heart surgery. It aims to better understand the “burden” of this rhythm problem, which could help improve care for future patients.
This study watches for an irregular heartbeat called atrial fibrillation that can happen after heart surgery. The aim is to understand and manage this condition better to support recovery.
This study tests a new way to measure how well the right side of the heart pumps blood while you are lying in different positions after heart surgery. It may help doctors assess your recovery more easily.
