Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
The incidence of any new onset recurrent or self reverting episode of sustained Ventricular Tachycardia VT ie lasting 30 seconds or requiring antiarrhythmic therapy cardioversion will be recorded.   The incidence of any new onset recurrent or self reverting episode of sustained Ventricular Tachycardia VT ie lasting 30 seconds or requiring antiarrhythmic therapy cardioversion will be recorded.  
 
Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
1. The incidence of non sustained VT ie VT lasting 30 seconds

Brief Summary  

The data collection project  aims to identify high risk patient and improve standard of care at the hospital by instating preventive measures,This study also aims to asess the incidence of post operative ventricular arrythmias before discharge from the hospital.As the new onset Post operative ventricular arrythmia after cardiac surgey is uncommon and has prognostic value is the rationale/background for this study.

This Study will help us to identify predictors which will help in improving primary and secondary strategies and thus improving morbidity and mortality due to  post operative ventricular arrythmias.
