SecondaryNumber of Defibrillation AttemptsParticipants were followed from randomization through the 60 minute period following myocardial reperfusion.
SecondaryIncidence of Arrhythmias Other Than Ventricular FibrillationParticipants were followed from randomization through the 60 minute period following myocardial reperfusion.Number of participants per arm who experienced arrhythmias other than ventricular fibrillation while in the ICU.
SecondaryIncidence of Arrhythmias in the Post-Operative PeriodParticipants were followed from dismissal from the ICU until dismissal from the hospital.Number of participants per arm who experienced arrhythmias while on floor care following dismissal from the ICU.
SecondaryUse of VasopressorsParticipants were followed from randomization until time to discharge from the hospital.Number of participants per arm who required the use of vasopressors in the post-operative period.
SecondaryTime to Discharge From the Intensive Care UnitParticipants were followed from the date of randomization until the date of discharge from the Intensive Care Unit, assessed up to 40 days.
