Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to test if a nerve block procedure called a stellate ganglion block can help decrease the chance of atrial fibrillation after surgery. Atrial fibrillation is the abnormal, fast beating of the upper chambers of the heart. Stellate ganglion blockade has shown to decrease other types of abnormal heart rhythms as well as decrease the chance of atrial fibrillation.
