What is the recommended management strategy of post-CABG AF in subjects without pre-CABG AF?
The preferred management strategy of post-CABG AF in such patients often consists of control of the ventricular rate (with beta blockers) in anticipation of spontaneous reversion to sinus rhythm within a few weeks. In addition, if the patient is considered to be at risk for a thromboembolic event while in AF, anticoagulation (with heparin and then warfarin) is warranted.
