Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

incidence of POAF
Continuous ECG recordings were made on Holter recorders for 72 hours after the operation. Arrhythmia detection were done automatically by template matching. The decisions made automatically by the computer were reviewed and corrected by an experienced technician and then by a cardiologist.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Quality of Recovery Score - 40 (QoR-40)
Quality of recovery will be evaluated by Quality of Recovery 40 (QoR40),which assesses five dimensions of recovery (physical comfort,emotional state, physical independence , physiological support and pain ). Each item is rated on a five-point Likert scale: none of the time, some of the time, usually, most of the time, and all the time. The total score on the QoR40 ranges from 40 (poorest quality of recovery) to 200 (best quality of recovery).
specific time of POAF
Specific time of POAF,such as 9:00AM,first day after surgery
incidence of other arrhythmia
Continuous ECG recordings were made on Holter recorders for 72 hours after the operation. Arrhythmia detection were done automatically by template matching. The decisions made automatically by the computer were reviewed and corrected by an experienced technician and then by a cardiologist.
Ventricular rate during POAF
Continuous ECG recordings were made on Holter recorders for 72 hours after the operation.
Incidence of postoperative delirium

Numerical Rating Scale(NRS)
Evaluate the severity using numerical rating scale(NRS), where zero mean no pain and 10 the worst imaginable pain.
incidence of POAF
Conduct electrocardiogram in patients with heartache or other symptoms.The decisions made by an experienced technician and then confirmed by a cardiologist.
incidence of other arrhythmia
