Abstract:
Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and other types of tachyarrhythmia are common, but might be potentially fatal complications in patients undergoing aortic valve replacement due to aortic stenosis. We report the effects of ultra-short-acting beta-blocker (landiolol) in treating 2 patients with postoperative tachycardia. The heart rate was controlled adequately without subsequent hypotension and postoperative course was uneventful. This strategy seems to be safe and beneficial in this particular circumstance.
