Preoperative Carbohydrate Load and Intraoperative w3-PUFA in CAGB Surgery

Summary

Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (w-3-PUFA) may have a potential role in enhance the postoperative balance of host immunity and reduce the incidence of postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF). CHO drinks 2h before the induction of the anesthesia may reduce the necessity of vasoactive drugs preoperatively. the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of these two nutrients in patients undergoing CABG with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) on morbidity at ICU, mainly POFA. This is a double-blind controlled randomized trial.
