spironolactone and Complication, Postoperative

spironolactone has been researched along with Complication, Postoperative in 36 studies

Spironolactone: A potassium sparing diuretic that acts by antagonism of aldosterone in the distal renal tubules. It is used mainly in the treatment of refractory edema in patients with congestive heart failure, nephrotic syndrome, or hepatic cirrhosis. Its effects on the endocrine system are utilized in the treatments of hirsutism and acne but they can lead to adverse effects. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p827)
spironolactone : A steroid lactone that is 17alpha-pregn-4-ene-21,17-carbolactone substituted by an oxo group at position 3 and an alpha-acetylsulfanyl group at position 7.

Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation

The primary endpoint of the study was the percentage of patients with electrocardiographically confirmed AF of at least 10 secs duration at any time following the end of surgery until hospital discharge, an average from 5.7 days in the ramipril group to 6.8 days in the placebo group. Patients were monitored continuously on telemetry throughout the postoperative period until discharge. Electrocardiograms were obtained for any rhythm changes detected on telemetry monitoring, and in addition, electrocardiograms were performed preoperatively, at admission to the intensive care unit, and daily starting on postoperative day 1. All electrocardiograms and rhythm strips were reviewed in a blinded fashion by a single cardiac electrophysiologist. (NCT00141778)
