    Postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) is a common dysrhythmia that affects a significant number of patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Many studies aim to better understand this complex postsurgical complication by analysing circulating biomarkers in patients who develop POAF. More recently, the pericardial space was shown to contain inflammatory mediators that could trigger POAF. In this review we summarise recent studies that examine the immune mediators present in the pericardial space and their potential implications for the pathophysiology of POAF in cardiac surgery patients.

    • Prolonged postsurgical inflammation, though relatively rare, can be frustrating for both patients and practitioners. In some cases, an indolent infectious organism introduced at the time of surgery leads to chronic or recurrent #postoperative inflammation. https://t.co/xYfUXV55v9 https://t.co/DG4qsbVAVR

    The Anesthesia Patient Safety Foundation (APSF) declared that “no patient shall be harmed by opioid-induced respiratory depression (OIRD)” about a decade ago (asamonitor.pub/3JCdDkf). In 2021 alone, more than 100,000 Americans died due to drug overdoses, with around 75% of those deaths due to opioids (asamonitor.pub/3f9RhZi). Postoperative OIRD continues to be a costly and potentially fatal…
