Abstract :
We have read with great interest the article entitled “Postoperative atrial fibrillation prediction following isolated surgical
aortic valve replacement” in the current issue of the journal (1).
In this study, authors aimed to determine pre- and perioperative
risk factors in patients undergoing surgical aortic valve replacement and to design a model that can predict the postoperative
arrhythmic event.
