Approximately a quarter of patients will develop atrial fibrillation after open heart surgery. Atrial fibrillation is a type of irregular heart rhythm or arrhythmia, in which the heart does not pump effectively. This can lead to problems such as stroke, palpitations (an abnormal heart rhythm that can feel like your heart is racing or pounding) and prolonged hospital stays. The goal of this study is to determine if the application of a medication (amiodarone) containing patch on the surface of the heart at the time of surgery is safe, which may lead to a treatment to lower the rate of atrial fibrillation in patients undergoing open heart surgery.
