Effect of Del Nido cardioplegia on ventricular arrhythmias after cardiovascular surgery.

abstract：BACKGROUND:In the absence of a systematic collection of data pertaining to heart failure, summarizing the data available from individual studies provides an opportunity to estimate the burden of heart failure. The present study systematically reviewed the literature to estimate the incidence and prevalence rates of hea...
