summary

In recent years, the incidence rate of atrial fibrillation is increasing. Many people will find out the condition of atrial fibrillation when they are doing physical examination. The symptoms of the house are usually heartbeat, and panic. Serious patients must go to hospital in time. Now I will share with you the general anesthesia of atrial fibrillation.

Can atrial fibrillation surgery be under general anesthesia

First, cardiovascular system related diseases, will significantly increase the risk of anesthesia, and atrial fibrillation as one of the more typical, will naturally have a great impact on anesthesia.

Second, in fact, atrial fibrillation is one of the most common heart diseases that affect anesthesia during preoperative visit. For the treatment of atrial fibrillation, the key is to control the ventricular rate and prevent thrombosis. Therefore, before the operation, we should strictly control the ventricular rate by various means to ensure that the heart rate is within the acceptable range, and carry out the necessary anticoagulation and antithrombotic treatment, so as to carry out elective operation. This requires professional consultation and targeted treatment of cardiovascular medicine.

Third, if it is an emergency operation, we need to pay attention to the control of heart rate during the operation, to ensure the stability of hemodynamics, and also need to pay attention to anticoagulation to avoid thrombosis and so on. In fact, surgical patients with atrial fibrillation are not uncommon. Although there is a risk of anesthesia, as long as the perioperative preparation is sufficient and the intraoperative stability and safety are guaranteed, patients with atrial fibrillation can naturally undergo surgery.

In addition, it should be noted that the patients should adjust their daily life with the change of season and climate during the treatment, so as to prevent colds, so as not to aggravate the disease.
