Protocol summary

Study aim
Determination of the effects of atorvastatin in comparison with rosuvastatin in preventing AF rhythm in patients undergoing cardiovascular bypass surgery
Design
A randomized clinical trial study of 200 individuals randomly divided into two groups of 100, two arm parallel group with blinded postoperative care and outcome assessment
Settings and conduct
200 individuals who are candidates for Elective CABG in ShahidMadani Hospital in Tabriz are divided into 2 groups of 100.For one group atorvastatin 40 mg daily and for the other group rosuvastatin 20 mg daily from one week before CABG will be administrated,they will being under holter monitoring for 72 hours postoperatively. They will be also undergoing ECG until staying in the ward.For blinding, the drug given in 2 groups won't be labeled, and the patients will not be aware of their medication. Also,during the hospitalization of the patient,care staff and the person reporting the AF from Holter Monitoring won't be informed about the patient receiving the drug and the patient study group.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Preoperative sinus rhythm,Patient consent,elective CABG surgery_Exclusion criteria:Urgent CABG,Previous cardiac surgery history,Cardiac surgery except CABG,left ventricle EF less than or equal to 25%,Left atrium size in echo more than 6 cm,Need to inotrope postoperatively,Being dependent on pacemaker after surgery,The patient's rhythm should not be sinus,Hyperthyroidism,valve insufficiency over than moderate in mitral and aortic valve ,Renal failure
Intervention groups
200 candidates for elective CABG will randomly divide into two groups of 100 . For one group atorvastatin 40 mg daily and for the other group rosuvastatin 20 mg daily one week before CABG will be prescribed.
Main outcome variables
Primary outcome: Determination of atrial fibrillation abundance after CABG surgery

The preoperative EKG of the patient must have sinus rhythm For the study, the patient must have satisfaction The patient must be a candidate for elective surgery The CABG surgery of the patient should be on pump
Exclusion criteria:
Urgent CABG surgery Previous cardiac surgery Cardiac surgery except CABG Left ventricular ejection fraction less than or equal to 25% Diameter of left atrium more than 6 cm in echocardiography Need to inotropic agents after surgery Being dependent on pace maker after surgery The patient's rhythm shouldn't be sinus.

Sample size
Target sample size: 200
Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
Patients will be selected in two intervention (100 patients) and control (100 patients) groups. in this method with considering sample size, two colored cards (red and blue) with the equal quantity and the total sample size will be placed in a container. Then the qualified participants randomly will take one of the cards from the container and finally they will be entered in the atorvastatin or rosuvastatin groups.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
For blinding the study, drug given in two groups will be unlabeled, in which both drugs will be completely similar in color and form, and patients will not be aware of their medication. Also, during the hospitalization of the patient care, staffs and the person which will report the atrial fibrillation with Holter Monitoring won,t know about the patient's receiving drug and the patient's study group.
