Magnesium, known for its stabilizing effect on cell membranes, has shown promise in preventing postoperative atrial fibrillation. This study aimed to assess the impact of intravenous magnesium infusion in preventing atrial fibrillation after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting, where maintaining stable cell membranes is crucial in averting this complication. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted at the Department of Cardiac Surgery, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, from March 2020 to February 2022. Sixty-six patients who underwent off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting were enrolled and divided into two groups. Group A (n = 33) received intravenous magnesium sulfate (10 mmol/2.47gm) for three days after surgery, while Group B (n = 33) did not receive magnesium sulfate. Postoperative atrial fibrillation occurrence in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) within three days after surgery was evaluated using convenient sampling. Statistical analysis was performed with SPSS version 26.0, utilizing independent Student’s t-test for continuous data and Chi-square and Fisher’s exact test for categorical data. A p-value of ≤0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: No significant differences in age or gender were observed between the two groups. Group B exhibited significantly lower magnesium levels than Group A on the 0<sup>th</sup>, 1<sup>st</sup>, 2<sup>nd</sup>, and 3<sup>rd</sup> days post-surgery. Additionally, Group B experienced a higher incidence of postoperative atrial fibrillation, longer ICU stays, and two mortalities. The study did not detect any adverse effects associated with magnesium infusion. Conclusion: It has been demonstrated that administering magnesium intravenously after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting can lower the chances of developing atrial fibrillation. This demonstrates the potential advantages of using magnesium as a preventative measure for postoperative atrial fibrillation in such cases.展开更多

文摘心房颤动(Atrial Fibrillation,AF)是一种常见的心律失常疾病,会严重影响患者的日常生活,甚至引发包括中风、血栓堵塞等的并发症。因此,对房颤早期准确的诊疗非常重要。但是,算法对大规模的心率数据运行效率较低,因此房颤的诊断仍面临一定的挑战。针对上述挑战,文章提出了一种新型的基于深度学习的房颤检测架构BiLSTM-Attention。该架构包含双向长短期记忆网络(Bi-directional Long Short-Term Memory,BiLSTM)和Attention机制。在BiLSTM-Attention中,BiLSTM用于访问心率序列中的前项和后项数据,Attention机制用于给数据特征分配不同的权重,最终通过顶部全连接层分类房颤。在MIT-BIHAF数据库上对该架构进行了交叉验证,取得了98.54%的准确率。实验结果表明,BiLSTM-Attention架构在测试数据集上表现良好,为进一步探索智慧医疗迈出了坚实的一步。
