Perioperative tachycardia

Perioperative tachycardia refers to an abnormally elevated heart rate, typically defined as exceeding 100 beats per minute, occurring during the preoperative, intraoperative, or postoperative surgical phases

Primarily affecting the cardiovascular system in patients undergoing surgical procedures, it is commonly triggered by sympathetic nervous system hyperactivity resulting from surgical trauma, inadequate anesthesia or analgesia, hypovolemia, hypoxia, or primary cardiac tachyarrhythmias Pathophysiologically, the sustained acceleration in rate reduces ventricular diastolic filling time and compromises coronary perfusion while substantially increasing myocardial oxygen consumption If left unaddressed...

Primarily affecting the cardiovascular system in patients undergoing surgical procedures, it is commonly triggered by sympathetic nervous system hyperactivity resulting from surgical trauma, inadequate anesthesia or analgesia, hypovolemia, hypoxia, or primary cardiac tachyarrhythmias

If left unaddressed, this imbalance between myocardial oxygen supply and demand poses a heightened risk of myocardial ischemia, infarction, or hemodynamic collapse, particularly in individuals with pre-existing cardiovascular compromise
