• TITLE: Preoperative Atrial Fibrillation and T-Wave Inversion Associated with Postoperative Pulmonary Edema

  AUTHORS: Thomas Hong, Benson George, Mohamad Hashim, Dennis E. Feierman

  KEYWORDS: Pulmonary Edema, Atrial Fibrillation, T Wave Inversion

  JOURNAL NAME: Open Journal of Anesthesiology, Vol.6 No.10, October 25, 2016

  ABSTRACT: Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) and T wave inversion (TWI) are occasionally found on pre-operative electrocardiograms (EKG) of patients with long standing hy-pertension (HTN) associated with left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). Each of these two pathologies, AF and LVH, can impose negative hemodynamic effects on the car-diac function. Case: We present a case of a patient with AF, TWI and long standing HTN that went into post-operative pulmonary edema. Conclusion: Even returning to base line poorly controlled hypertension, and even more so during a hypertensive cri-sis, their concurrent presence may inflict even more detrimental effect manifested by elevation of pulmonary venous pressure and pulmonary edema.
