Methods we examined 102 patients who underwent cardiac monitoring in the perioperative period to detect episodes of atrial fibrillation and focused echocardiography to detect signs of systemic congestion. All patients underwent abdominal surgery lasting more than 180 minutes.Clinical, laboratory, and echocardiographic criteria were used to verify systemic stagnation in the postoperative period in patients after non-cardiac surgery. Results we determined the number of patients with perioperative AF who had acute decompensation of HF in the early postoperative period, determined by signs of systemic stagnation. When assessing the number of patients with preoperative anamnestic AF, which was initially 16 people, in 100% of cases in the postoperative period, decompensation of HF was noted. When evaluating the number of patients with intraoperative AF, which was detected in 24 patients, decompensation of HF in the first 24 hours after abdominal surgery was observed in 23 patients (95.8%) (OR: 25.4; 95% CI: 3.27-198.14; p <0.001). When assessing the number of patients with postoperative AF, which was detected in 36 patients, decompensation of HF in the first 24 hours after abdominal surgery was observed in 35 patients (97.2%) (OR:57.4;95% CI:7.39-435.45; p <0.001). Conclusion in major non-cardiac operations, most patients with perioperative atrial fibrillation show signs of systemic stagnation in the postoperative period with FOCUS.

Abstract Purpose To assess the prevalence of frailty in the preoperative period and to evaluate its effect on the risk of complications and adverse outcomes in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Methods 303 patients undergoing preoperative management for elective primary CABG were recruited in the study. The study cohort was divided into three groups depending on the PRISMA-7 scores suggesting the presence or absence of frailty and the presence of prefrailty. Statistical analysis was performed using the commercially available software package STATISTICA 8.0.360.0 for Windows (StatSoft, Inc., USA) and SPSS Statistics v. 17.0.0. Results 46 (15%) patients had frailty, while 49 (16%) patients were diagnosed with prefrailty. 208 (69%) patients did not have any signs of frailty. All three groups had significant age differences, therefore only elderly patients aged of 67.0±6.5 years with frailty were allocated for subsequent analysis (prefrailty group - 62.3±7.4 years old, patients without frailty - 60.0±7.7 years, p=0.003). Patients with frailty or prefrailty more often suffered from diabetes mellitus (patients without frailty - 19.2%, prefrailty group - 30.6% and frailty group - 28.3%, p=0.05), arterial hypertension (69.2%, 93.9% and 95.7%, respectively, p<0.001), atrial fibrillation or flutter (7.2%, 14.3% and 19.6%, respectively, p=0.03), chronic heart failure class 3–4 (7.2%, 10.2% and 8.7%, respectively, p=0.002), and peripheral arterial disease (22.6%, 38.8% and 58.7%, respectively, p<0.001). Three groups were comparable in main clinical and demographic parameters. There were no significant differences found in the incidence of postoperative atrial fibrillation or flutter (15.9%, 8.2% and 6.5%, respectively, p=0.07) and infections (1.9%, 0% and 4.3%, respectively, p=0.640). The incidence of myocardial infarction in the intra- and early postoperative period after CABG did not differ significantly between the groups (0.5%, 2% and 0%, respectively, p=0.328) as well as the incidence of stroke (2.4%, 2% and 0%, respectively, p=0.640). Patients with frailty and prefrailty had significantly higher cerebrovascular and cardiovascular mortality compared to those without frailty (8.2%, 2.2% and 0.5%, respectively, p=0.001). Conclusion Almost 15% of patients referred to CABG suffered from frailty. The presence of prefrailty or frailty increases the risk of death in the early postoperative period after CABG.

Introduction: External recorders allow for low-cost, non-invasive 1 to 4 weeks monitoring. However, the first 3 months of monitoring duration are the most effective to detect atrial fibrillation (AF). We show the results of the Thunder registry of patients monitored to detect AF during 90 days from the stroke. Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted with consecutive inclusion of patients with cryptogenic stroke after work up (neuroimaging, echocardiography and 24-hour cardiac monitoring) in 5 Comprenhensive Stroke Centers. Patients were continuously monitored for 90 days with a wearable Holter (Nuubo®) after the first 24 hours of the stroke onset. We analyzed the percentage of AF detection in each period (percentage of AF among those monitored), the quality of the monitoring (monitoring time), the percentage of AF by intention to monitor (detection of AF among patient included). Demographic, clinical and echocardiographic predictors of AF detection beyond one week of cardiac monitoring were assessed. Results: A total of 254 patients were included. The cumulative incidence of AF detection at 90 days was 34.84%. The monitoring time was similar among the 3 months (30 days: 544.9 hours Vs 60 days: 505.9 hours Vs 90 days: 591.25 hours) (p=0.512). The number of patients who abandoned monitoring was 7% (18/254). The cumulative percentage of intention to detect AF was 30.88% (Figure). Patients who completed monitoring beyond 30 days had higher score on the NIHSS basal scale (NIHSS 9 IQR 2-17) VS (NIHSS 3 IQR 1-9) (p=0.024). Patients with left atrial volume greater than 28.5ml/m2 had higher risk of cumulative incidence of AF according to the Kaplan Meyer curve beyond the first week of monitoring OR 2.72 (Log-rank (Mantel-Cox test) (p<0.001). Conclusions: In conclusion, intensive 90-day- Holter monitoring with textile Holter was feasible and detected high percentage of AF. Enlarged left atrial volume predicted AF beyond the first week of monitoring.

The study aimed to analyze kidney function for patients with complicated forms of coronary artery disease (CAD) in the perioperative period. Methods. It was a retrospective analysis of 110 high-risk patients with complicated forms of CAD, who were operated on and discharged from the National M. Amosov Institute for the period from 2009 till 2019 years. Kidney function was evaluated by glomerular filtration rate (GFR), calculated online with СKD-EPI formula. Results. Among the included patients there were 86 (78.1%) patients with metabolic syndrome, 81 (73.59%) patients with disorders of glucose metabolism, 82 (74.5%) subjects with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and 38 (34.5%) patients had chronic kidney disease (CKD) 3-5 stage. Preoperative risk stratification with EuroScore II scale was 9.4%. All operations performed in cardiopulmonary bypass; Custodial cardioplegia was used in 53 (48.1%) patients. The average perfusion time was 111 minutes, average cross-clamping time was 73.9 minutes. Acute kidney injury in the early postoperative period had 9 (8.1%) patients. Conclusions. At the admittance 38 (34.5%) patients with complicated forms of CAD had CKD 3-5 st. Analysis of the GFR dynamic in the early postoperative period shown a decrease in GFR in 71.05% of patients. Transient acute kidney injury with 50% sCr growth had 9 (8.1%) patients but didn’t require hemodialysis.

Aim. To assess the impact of clinical and intraoperative factors on the dynamics of quality of life (QOL) after aortic prosthetics in patients with chronic dissection of ascending aorta and aortic arch.Material and methods. The study included 56 patients (mean age 50 years) with chronic DeBakey type I aortic dissection. With the help of the SF­36 questionnaire, QOL was examined before and later (12 months) after aortic prosthetics. The method of multivariate linear regression analysis was used to evaluate factors that influence the dynamics of various parameters of QOL in the late postoperative period. Results. Before the operation, patients scored from 52 points and below almost in all parameters of the questionnaire, which indicates a very low initial level of QOL. In the long­term period after aortic prosthetics, a statistically significant improvement in the following physical and psycho­emotional indicators was noted: role functioning (p=0,004); bodily pain (p=0,0001); vitality (p=0,009); social role functioning (p=0,002); emotional role functioning (p=0,009); physical health (p=0,02); mental health (p=0,03). At the same time, there was no positive change in the initial low parameters of general health and psychiatric health perceptions.According to multivariate regression analysis, the dynamics of QOL parameters in the long­term period after surgical treatment of the dissection of ascending aorta and aortic arch are affected by both intraoperative conditions (cerebral protection method) and the early postoperative period (neurological complications, cardiopulmonary failure, atrial fibrillation). Indicators such as gender, age, body weight, comorbidity, type of prosthesis of the ascending aorta, time spent in the intensive care unit, duration of artificial pulmonary ventilation do not have a significant effect on QOL in the long­term postoperative period.Conclusion. Clinical and intraoperative factors that adversely affect the dynamics of various indicators of QOL in long­term periods after prosthetics of the ascending aorta and aortic arch were: cerebral protection in conditions of deep hypothermia and craniocerebral hypothermia against the background of systemic circulatory arrest; development of neurological complications, as well as atrial fibrillation and cardiopulmonary failure in the early postoperative period.

Aim. To evaluate the incidence of complications of the developed scheme of management of patients in the perioperative period after radical cystectomy with small intestinal urinary derivation. Methods. The study included 105 (100%) patients treated at the department of urologic oncology of the National center of oncology of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Azerbaijan during the period from 2008 to 2015. Modified Hautman Ileocystoplasty was performed in 87 (82.9%) patients, urine derivation by Bricker’s method - in 18 (17.1%) patients. Tactics for patient management corresponded to the proposed scheme of patient preparation and algorithm for the management. The main criteria for evaluation of the efficacy of the proposed scheme were the incidence and nature of the most common complications in the early postoperative period (30 days) according to the Clavien-Dindo classification. Results. 131 complications occurred in 71 (67.6%) patients within 30 days after the operation, out of them one complication in 32 (30.5%) patients, two in 23 (22%), three complications in 11 (10.5%), four and more - in 5 (4.8%) patients. The most common complication in the early postoperative period was gastrointestinal atony - 33.4% (n=35). Conclusion. Combined anesthesia and extraperitoneal bladder removal provide significant reduction of the incidence of postoperative gastrointestinal atony; for conclusive evaluation of the effectiveness of the proposed complex controlled studies are necessary.

Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: Public Institution(s). Main funding source(s): The Ministry of Health and Welfare The National Research Foundation of Korea (NRF) Backgroud Sinus rhythm (SR) can be maintained with antiarrhythmic drugs (AADs) in a considerable number of patients with recurrent atrial fibrillation (AF) after AF catheter ablation (AFCA). Purpose We explored the characteristics and long-term outcomes of patients who maintained clinically acceptable rhythm control with AADs for 2 years. Methods Among 2,935 consecutive AAD-resistant patients who underwent a de novo AFCA, we included 512 recurrent patients (73.0% men, 59.2 ± 10.5 years old, 56.4% paroxysmal AF) who were followed up for over 2 years under AAD medications. Results In total, 218 patients remained in SR (AAD-responders[2-yrs], 42.6%) and 294 had recurrent AF among whom, 162 underwent repeat procedures (redo-AFCA[AAD failure-2-yrs]). We also compared the AAD-responders[2-yrs] with 40 patients who underwent AFCA before AADs (redo-AFCA[Before AAD]). AAD-responders[2-yrs] were independently associated with an old age (odds ratio [OR] 1.02 [1.00-1.04] p = 0.037), paroxysmal AF (OR 1.51 [1.04-2.19] p = 0.003), and a delayed recurrence timing of &gt; 18 months (OR 1.52 [1.04-2.22] p = 0.032). When comparing the AAD-responder[2-yrs] and redo-AFCA[AAD failure-2-yrs] groups, the recurrence pattern showed a convergence after 7 years. The overall rhythm outcome was better in the redo-AFCA[Before AAD] group than AAD group (log rank p = 0.013). Conclusion Among the patients with recurrent AF after AFCA, over 40% remained in SR with AADs for 2 years, especially those who were old, those with a paroxysmal type, and those who had a delayed recurrence timing of &gt;18 months after the de novo procedure.
