Objective Postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) is a common complication affecting approximately one-third of patients after cardiac surgery and valvular interventions. This umbrella review systematically appraises the epidemiological credibility of published meta-analyses of both observational and randomised controlled trials (RCT) to assess the risk and protective factors of POAF.

Coronary thrombosis is a dynamic process of platelet aggregation and subsequent coagulation. During spontaneous reperfusion -- whether via thrombolysis, or recruitment of collateral circulation -- there exists characteristic ST/T changes on the ECG.

Accurate lead placement is invaluable, and makes a significant impact on appropriate care trajectory, or misdiagnosis with unnecessary utilization of resources. A common finding associated with V1 / V2 malposition is P wave inversion, and rSr’ QRS with T wave inversion -- potentially leading clinicians to suspect Brugada pattern, for example, when no such entity exists.

Objective To examine risk factors for cardiac-related postacute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection (PASC) in community-dwelling adults after acute COVID-19 infection. Methods We performed a cross-sectional analysis among adults who tested positive for COVID-19. Outcomes were self-reported cardiac-related PASC. We conducted stepwise multivariable logistic regression to assess association between the risk factors (existing cardiovascular disease (CVD), pre-existing conditions, days since positive te
