The comparison between the efficiency of different anti-arrhythmic agents in preventing postoperative atrial fibrillation after open heart surgery/Acik kalp cerrahisi sonrasi gelisen atriyal fibrilasyonu onlemek icin kullanilan ilaclarin etkinlik yonunden karsilastirilmasi.

OZET

Amac: Atriyal fibrilasyon (AF); acik kalp cerrahisi sonrasinda en sik gorulen komplikasyonlardan biridir. Acik kalp cerrahisini takiben sinus ritmini saglamak icin kullanilan degisik antiaritmik ilaclarin etkisinin karsilastirilmasi ile ilgili yeterli veri yoktur. Biz calismamizda; farkli sinisarda yer alan cesitli antiaritmik ilaclarin, operasyon oncesi baslanmasinin, postoperatif AF sikligina, hastanede yatis zamanina, gelisebilecek komplikasyonlara etkisini karsilastirmayi planladik.

Yontemler: Bu ileriye donuk tek-kor calismaya acik kalp cerrahisi planlanan 180 hasta (130 erkek, 50 kadin, ortalama yas: 58.13[+ or -]11.7) alindi. Hastalar bes gruba ayrildi. Ilaclar operasyondan 7 gun once baslandi. Birinci gruba (G1) propafenon 300mg /gun, ikinci gruba (G2) sotalol sotalol /so·ta·lol/ (so´tah-lol) a non-cardioselective beta-adrenergic blocking agent used as the hydrochloride salt in the treatment of life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias.  80mg /gun, ucuncu gruba (G3) amiodaron 400mg/gun, dorduncu gruba (G4) diltiazem diltiazem /dil·ti·a·zem/ (dil-ti´ah-zem) a calcium channel blocker that acts as a vasodilator; used as the hydrochloride salt in the treatment of angina pectoris, hypertension, and supraventricular tachycardia.  180mg /gun; oral olarak verildi. Besinci gruba (G5) antiaritmik ilac verilmedi. Operasyon sonrasi tum gruplarda tedaviye yatis suresince devam edildi. Istatistiksel analiz Ki-kare ve tek yonlu ANOVA anova

Bulgular: Postoperatif AF'un gruplara gore dagilimi incelendiginde; postoperatif AF, G1'de hastalarin %18.1, G2'de hastalarin %9.1, G3'de hastalarin %16.2, G4'de hastalarin %28.6, G5'de hastalarin %38.1'inde postoperatif AF goruldu. Hicbir antiaritmik ilacin uygulanmadigi G5 grubunda postoperatif AF sikliginin en yuksek oldugu belirlendi (p=0.026). Hastanede yatis suresi acisindan gruplar karsilastirildiginda istatistiksel anlamli fark bulundu (p=0.033); G2 grubundaki hastalarin 8.9[+ or -]2.7 gun ile hastanede en kisa sure yatan hastalar oldugu saptandi.

Sonuc: Preoperatif ortalama 7 gun once baslanan ve postoperatif yaklasik 10 gun sureyle devam edilen antiaritmik ilac kullaniminin postoperatif AF'u ve morbiditeyi azalttigini, hastanede yatis zamanini kisalttigini tespit ettik. Ayrica bizim hasta populasyonumuzda bu ilaclar icinde, sotalol ve amiodaronun daha etkili oldugunu saptadik. (Anadolu Kardiyol Derg 2008; 8: 206-12)

ABSTRACT

Objective: Atrial fibrillation atrial fibrillation

Irregular rhythm (arrhythmia) of contraction of the atria (upper heart chambers). The most common major arrhythmia, it may result as a consequence of increased fibrous tissue in the aging heart, of heart disease, or in association with severe infection.
 (AF) is one of the most frequent complications that may occur after open-heart surgery open-heart surgery

Any surgical procedure opening the heart and exposing one or more of its chambers, most often to repair valve disease or correct congenital heart malformations (see congenital heart disease).

Tartisma

Bu calisma, KABG oncesi verilen oral anti-aritmik ilaclarin postoperatif AF oranini azalttigini gostermistir. Ilac almayan grupla karsilastirildiginda; propafenon ile tedavinin postoperatif AF gelisimini 2.09, sotalol ile 4.18 ve amiodaron ile 2.35 kati oraninda azaldigi gozlenmistir. Diltiazem ile tedavi edilen hastalarda postoperatif AF 1.35 kati oraninda azalma oldugu ancak bu azalmanin istatistiksel anlamliliga ulasmadigi tespit edildi.

Calismamizda hastanede yatis suresi postoperatif AF gelisen hastalarda 11.14[+ or -]2.8 gun iken, AF gelismeyen hastalarda bu sure 8.98[+ or -]2.7 gundur. Gruplar karsilastirildiginda G5 grubunda hastanede yatis suresi diger gruplara gore en uzundur (p=0.033).

Calismamizda degerlendirmeye alinan hastalarin %22.7'sinde AF gozlendi. Bu sonuc literaturdeki diger calismalarla benzerlik gostermektedir (1-11, 18, 19).

Postoperatif AF'un onlenmesine yonelik daha once sotalol ile yapilan bir calismada; profilaktik olarak kardiyak cerrahi oncesi 91 hastaya sotalol veya plasebo verilmis ve kontrol grubunda %36 orani nda postoperatif supraventrikuler tasikardi gelisirken, sotalol grubunda %24 hastada supraventrikuler tasikardi saptanmistir (p<0.01) (21). Diger bir calismada 80-120 mg dozlarinda sotalol verilen hastalarda postoperatif AF gelisme oraninda %67'lik bir azalma oldugu gozlenmistir (18). Bizim calismamizda ise; sotalol verilen G2 grubunda; 33 hastanin 3'unde postoperatif AF gelisti (%9.1). Bu deger diger gruplarla karsilastirildiginda p=0.026, ilacsiz grup olan G5'le karsilastirildiginda ise p=0.004 bulundu. Sotalol; propafenon, amiodaron ve diltiazem ile karsilastirilinca yalnizca diltiazem alan grupla arasi nda istatistiksel olarak anlamli derecede fark saptandi (p=0.04). Bu gruplar arasinda istatistiksel olarak cok anlamli netice bulunmamasi, gruplardaki hasta sayisinin az olmasina baglandi.

Amiodaron ile yapilan tum calismalar, meta-analizler ve degerlendirmelerde; olumlu sonuclardan bahsedilmistir (13, 15, 21-25). Dauod ve ark.nin (13) yaptigi, 124 hastanin dahil edildigi bir calismada; elektif kardiyak cerrahiden 7 gun once, 64 hastaya oral amiodaron, 60 hastaya da plasebo verilmis ve postoperatif AF amiodarone alan 64 hastanin 16'sinda (%25), plasebo alan 60 hastanin 32'sinde (%53) gelismistir (p=0.003). Ayni calismada; hastanede yatis zamani, amiodaron grubunda 6.5[+ or -]2.6 gun, plasebo grubunda 7.9[+ or -]4.3 gun (p=0.04) bulunmustur. Auer ve ark.nin (19) yaptigi calismada; amiodaron, metoprolol metoprolol /met·o·pro·lol/ (met?ah-pro´lol) a cardioselective ß used in the form of the succinate and tartrate salts in the treatment of hypertension, chronic angina pectoris, and myocardial infarction.  ile birlikte plasebo, sotalol ve tek basina metoprolol ile karsilastirildi. Amiodaron ve metoprololun kombine kullanildi gi grupta postoperatif AF en az oranda gozlendi. Elli iki calismanin degerlendirildigi bir meta-analizde sotalol, beta bloker ve amiodaron arasinda anlamli farklilik tespit edilmedi (26). Bizim calismamizda; amiodaron alan G3 grubunda 37 hastanin 6'sinda postoperatif AF gelisti (%16.2). Bu deger gruplar icinde karsilastirildiginda; p=0.026, G5'le karsilastirildiginda; p=0.03 bulundu. Amiodaron; propafenon, sotalol ve diltiazem gruplari ile karsilastirildiginda; ilaclar arasinda istatistiksel olarak bir fark saptanmadi (p>0.05).

Diltiazemin, postoperatif AF'dan korumasina yonelik yapilan bazi calismalarda, olumlu sonuclar alinmis, bazi calismalarda ise daha cok ventrikul hizini kontrol etmek icin onerilmistir (2, 7, 15, 20, 27, 28). Seitelberg ve ark.nin (29) yaptigi calismada; perioperatif iskemi, aritmi ve miyokardiyal fonksiyonlar acisindan perioperatif 24 saat iv diltiazemin etkinligi degerlendirilmis ve postoperatif AF, diltiazem grubunda anlamli derecede az saptanmistir (p<0.05). Bizim calismamizda ise; diltiazem alan G4 grubunda 35 hastanin 10'unda postoperatif AF gelisti (%28.6). Diger gruplarla karsilastirildiginda p=0.026, ilacsiz grup olan G5'le karsilastirildiginda ise p=0.37 bulundu. Bu sonuc; diltiazem'in diger calismalarda belirtildigi gibi, bizim calismamizda da postoperatif AF'dan, korumada yetersiz oldugu ve ilacsiz gruptan farkli olmadigini gosterdi.

Atriyal fibrilasyonun hastanede yatis suresini uzattigi ve kaynak kullanimini artirdigina dair kuvvetli deliller vardir. Yapilan bazi calismalarda postoperatif AF'un, hastanede kalis suresini 2-5 gun uzattigi (7, 11, 13, 16, 20, 23, 30), ve postoperatif inme riskini ise, 2-3 kat artirdigi saptanmistir (11, 16, 23). Bizim calismamizda; hastanede yatis gunu acisindan gruplar degerlendirildiginde, en uzun hastanede yatis zamaninin, ortalama 12.0[+ or -]7.3 gun ile ilacsiz grupta oldugunu (p=0.033), en kisa hastanede yatis zamaninin ise 9.1 gun ile en az postoperatif AF gelisen grup olan sotalol grubunda oldugunu (8.9[+ or -]2.7 gun) saptadik. Tum postoperatif AF gelisen hastalarda, hastanede yatis zamani 11.14[+ or -]2.8 gun, AF gelismeyen hastalarda hastanede yatis zamani 8.98[+ or -]2.7 gun olarak saptandi (p=0.005). Postoperatif AF gelisen hastalarin, AF gelismeyen hastalara gore yaklasik 2 gun daha fazla hastanede yattigi saptandi. Hastanede yatis suresinin; propafenon ve diltiazem grubunda 2 gun, sotalol ve amiodaron grubunda 3 gun, daha az oldugu saptandi. Bu sonuclar diger calismalarla paralellik gostermektedir.

Calismanin sinirliliklari

Calismamizda degerlendirdigimiz hastalar genel olarak orta derecede riskli hastalar olup acik kalp cerrahisi uygulanacak farkli risk kategorisindeki hastalar icin tahmin yurutulmesini saglayamaz.

Bu calismada, beta-blokerler disindaki antiaritmik ilaclar degerlendirmeye alinmistir. Bu ilaclarin postoperatif AF'u onlemede etkinligi bilinen beta-blokerlerle karsilastirmasinin yapilmamis olmasi, bu calismanin diger bir sinirlamasi olarak kabul edilebilir.

Sonuc

Inceledigimiz hasta grubunda; preoperatif profilaktik antiaritmik ilac kullaniminin postoperatif AF'u, gelisebilecek diger aritmileri ve morbiditeyi azalttigi, hastanede yatis zamanini kisalttigi tespit edildi. Bu ilaclar icinde, diger calismalarda oldugu gibi, sotalol ve amiodaronun postoperatif AF gelisimini onlemede daha etkili oldugu saptandi.

Profilaktik antiaritmik ilac baslama suresi acisindan, ilacin etki suresine gore ortalama preoperatif 7 gun once baslanmasinin ve postoperatif ortalama 10 gun surdurulmesinin uygun bir sure oldugu dusunuldu. Ancak ilaclarin kullanim suresi, dozlari ve etkinli gi acisindan bu pilot calismadan daha buyuk hasta gruplarinda calismanin planlanmasinin sonuclari etkileyebilecegi kanaatine varildi. Bu calismada kullanilan ilac dozlarinin genellikle yeterli oldugu gozlendi. Ayrica hasta ozelliklerine gore, dozlarda degisiklikler yapilabilecegine karar verildi.
