Aim: The aim of this study was a retrospective analysis of the perioperative factors potentially contributing to occurrence of cardiac incidents after cardiac surgery procedures. Methods: Data of 552 patients of the cardiac surgery clinic were collected and analyzed. Data concerning medical history, previous treatment, laboratory results, additional tests results, operation and hospitalization period were examined. Results: In the study population of 552 patients, cardiac complications were observed in 49.5% of them. Among cardiac complications, the most frequent were supraventricular tachycardia (30.1%) and atrial fibrillation (27.4%). Postoperative bradycardia occurred in 5.25% patients, half of whom required temporary cardiac pacing. Conclusions: The risk of incidence of cardiac complications after cardiac surgery procedures depends mostly on patient\u2019s age, EuroSCORE Logistic (ESL) score, left ventricular ejection fraction, myocardial hypertrophy, presence of paroxysmal AF and coincidence of nephrological complications. The necessity of performing more than one heart defibrillation after removing aortic cross-clamp favors early postoperative bradycardia. Considering the outcomes of this study, continuing reperfusion at least until 1\/3 of the aortic cross-clamp time brings no additional benefits to the patients.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/jcm9103347","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,10,18]],"date-time":"2020-10-18T21:26:06Z","timestamp":1603056366000},"page":"3347","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":23,"title":["Cardiac Complications Following Cardiac Surgery Procedures"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"9","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7881-6072","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jakub","family":"Udzik","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiac Surgery, Pomeranian Medical University, Powsta\u0144c\u00f3w Wielkopolskich 72, 70-111 Szczecin, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sandra","family":"Sienkiewicz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiac Surgery, Pomeranian Medical University, Powsta\u0144c\u00f3w Wielkopolskich 72, 70-111 Szczecin, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Andrzej","family":"Biskupski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiac Surgery, Pomeranian Medical University, Powsta\u0144c\u00f3w Wielkopolskich 72, 70-111 Szczecin, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6105-5329","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Aleksandra","family":"Szyli\u0144ska","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Rehabilitation and Clinical Physiotherapy, Pomeranian Medical University in Szczecin, \u017bolnierska 54, 71-210 Szczecin, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zuzanna","family":"Kowalska","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Mathematics and Informatics, Adam Mickiewicz University, Uniwersytetu Pozna\u0144skiego 4, 61-712 Pozna\u0144, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Patrick","family":"Biskupski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Lincoln Medical Center, 234E 149th St, Bronx, New York, NY 10451, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,10,18]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"232","article-title":"Wyniki leczenia kardiochirurgicznego u chorych 80-letnich i starszych","volume":"6","author":"Krawczyk","year":"2012","journal-title":"Geriatria"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"557","DOI":"10.5603\/FC.2017.0106","article-title":"Zwi\u0119kszanie przez zesp\u00f3\u0142 krucho\u015bci cz\u0119sto\u015bci wyst\u0119powania powik\u0142a\u0144 u pacjent\u00f3w poddawanych zabiegom kardiologii inwazyjnej i operacjom kardiochirurgicznym","volume":"12","author":"Opolski","year":"2017","journal-title":"Folia Cardiol."},{"key":"ref_3","first-page":"463","article-title":"Analiza powik\u0142a\u0144 u chorych po operacjach kardiochirurgicznych hospitalizowanych na Oddziale Intensywnej Terapii G\u00f3rno\u015bl\u0105skiego Centrum Medycznego w Katowicach w latach 2010\u20132011","volume":"9","author":"Gierek","year":"2012","journal-title":"Kardiochir.
