Post Operative Atrial Fibrillation: Alleviation by Calcium Chloride Injection Into Cardiac Ganglionic Plexus During Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting.

Name
Calcium chloride in CABG
Description
This study hypothesize that injecting calcium chloride (CaCl2) into the major atrial ganglionated plexus (GPs) during on pump Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) can reduce the incidence of Post operative Atrial fibrillation in the first 7 days after surgery.The study is designed to be prospective interventional study two armed RCT for on pump CABG patient. The intervention arm will be injected with Calcium chloride in the four major atrial ganglionic plexus The control arm will be injected with sodium chloride to determine the effect of Calcium chloride on Post CABG Atrial fibrillation
