Data showed left atrial size and 18F-FDG uptake predicted development of arrhythmias in patients with cardiac sarcoidosis. Sacubitril/valsartan therapy improved outcomes compared with enalapril in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. Several regional anesthesia techniques reduced opioid use after open-heart surgery, but an optimal option was not identified. Amiodarone and dexmedetomidine prevented junctional ectopic tachycardia after open-heart surgery in pediatric patients. Female patients with CHD who had open-heart surgery as infants had lower cerebral blood flow years later as adolescents. Performing surgical ablation for atrial fibrillation during open-heart surgery appeared to be safe and effective.
