Coronary artery bypass surgery electrocardiographic monitoring

Introduction

2011 ACCF/AHA Guideline for Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery (DO NOT EDIT)[1]

2011 ACCF/AHA Guideline for Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery (DO NOT EDIT)[1]

Electrocardiographic Monitoring (DO NOT EDIT)[1]

Class I
“1. Continuous monitoring of the electrocardiogram for arrhythmias should be performed for at least 48 hours in all patients after CABG.[2][3][4] (Level of Evidence: B)”
Class IIa
“1. Continuous ST-segment monitoring for detection of ischemia is reasonable in the intraoperative period for patients undergoing CABG.[5][6][7][8] (Level of Evidence: B)”
Class IIb
“1. Continuous ST-segment monitoring for detection of ischemia may be considered in the early postoperative period after CABG.[9][3][10][11][12][13] (Level of Evidence: B)”
