| Data ID | 1748 |
| Factor | incidence of TA, tachyarrhythmia |
| Description | Compared with controls, subjects in the dexmedetomidine group had significantly fewer tachyarrhythmias (29% versus 38%; P<0.001), tachyarrhythmias receiving intervention (14% versus 23%; P<0.001), bradyarrhythmias (18% versus 22%; P=0.03), and bradyarrhythmias receiving intervention (12% versus 16%; P=0.04). |

| p Value | <0.001 |
| Conclusion | Compared with controls, subjects in the dexmedetomidine group had significantly fewer tachyarrhythmiasversus, bradyarrhythmias, and bradyarrhythmias receiving intervention. |
