AB  - Cardiac  surgery  is  one  of  the  most  commonly  performed  major  operative  procedures  in  the  United  States.  The  indications  for  cardiac  surgery  include  myocardial  ischemia  and  infarction,  heart  failure,  valvular  dysfunction,  aortic  pathology,  and  surgery  for  dysrythmias.  The  management  of  patients  following  cardiac  surgery  requires  a  multifaceted  approach  and  the  involvement  of  a  team  of  specialists.  While  the  intensivist  is  often  the  point  person  for  the  management  of  the  patients  following  open  heart  surgery,  it  is  essential  that  the  management  involve  the  surgeon,  cardiologist,  and  anesthesiologist,  and  a  wide  variety  of  other  health  care  providers.
