Filter by:The purpose of the project is to elucidate whether it is possible to identify which patients are at risk of forming blood clots that can cause stroke based on analysis of the electrocardiogram. In connection with the operation, the small pouch known as the auricle of the heart is closed, which can be completely removed after closing. This procedure is common in patients with atrial fibrillation to protect the brain from stroke. In the project, all patients will have this auricle closed if they agree to participate in the project. After closure, the auricle is usually discarded. We will analyze the blood and the auricle tissue taken (if available) in connection with the operation itself, together with the analysis of the electrocardiogram recorded before the planned heart operation.
VISIONAIRE (Vitamin K AntagonISt, Factor Xa Inhibitor Or Nothing In Atrial Fibrillation And DIalytic End-stage Renal DiseasE) trial will be a prospective randomized open-label with blinded endpoint adjudication trial including 1500 patients with atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter and advanced chronic kidney disease
The investigators aim to conduct a pilot randomised controlled trial (RCT) with embedded feasibility study to evaluate an exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation (ExCR) programme when delivered to patients with atrial fibrillation on the waiting list for catheter ablation. Our overall objective is to test the feasibility and acceptability of an evidence-based ExCR intervention prior to evaluation in a future randomized controlled trial (RCT).
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a leading cause of cardiovascular mortality and morbidity. Asian patients with AF have a higher rate of major bleeding including intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) compared to non-Asians. Non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) are the safer drugs compared to warfarin due to a lower rate of ICH, but the rate of NOACs use in many Asian AF is much lower than non-Asian countries due to economic concerns. The purpose of the COhort of antithrOmbotic use and cLinical outcomes in patients with Atrial Fibrillation (COOL-AF) Phase 2 registry is to determine the changes in antithrombotic patterns and the impact on clinical outcomes. The COOL-AF Phase 2 study is a prospective observational multicenter study of patients with known or newly diagnosed non-valvular AF in Thailand. The aim is a sample size is 3680 patients from 33 centers within a 2-years enrollment timeline. Patients will be follow-up every 6 months until 3 years. The study outcomes were death, ischemic stroke/systemic embolism, major bleeding, myocardial infarction, heart failure, and quality of life.
PulsedSelect is a prospective, global, multi-center, observational post-approval study. Subjects will be treated with the PulseSelect™ PFA System and followed through 36 months.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare two ablation techniques to treat patients with persistent atrial fibrillation (irregular and often very rapid heart rhythm). An ablation is a procedure during which some scars are made on the inside of the heart to break up the electrical signals that cause the irregular heartbeat. In this trial researchers will compare a new technique, which uses tiny electric shocks to make the scars, to the standard technique, which uses heat. The main question the trial aims to answer is: • Does the new technique work as well as the standard technique to prevent the irregular heartbeat from returning within one year of the procedure? Participants will: - Undergo an ablation with either the new or the standard technique - Visit the hospital 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months after the procedure for a check-up - Wear a device to register their heart rhythm for 24 hours before the 3 month visit and for 72 hours before the 6, 9 and 12 month visit - Record their heart rhythm at home every week - Complete a questionnaire 3, 6, 9 and 12 months after the procedure
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine the effect of accelerated pacing (pacemaker lower rate programmed to 80bpm) compared to pacing at the standard programmed lower rate of 60bpm in symptomatic atrial fibrillation patients undergoing pace-and-ablate strategy with LBBAP. The main question it aims to answer is: - To determine the effect of accelerated pacing on health-related quality of life compared to the current standard of care. Secondary questions it aims to answer are: - To study the acute hemodynamic effect of different (accelerated) pacing rates on pulmonary capillary wedge pressure, cardiac output and arterial blood pressure among atrial fibrillation patients undergoing pace-and-ablate strategy. - To study the long-term effects (at 6 months) of accelerated pacing compared to the current standard of care among atrial fibrillation patients undergoing pace-and-ablate strategy on: - NT pro BNP levels - device detected atrial fibrillation burden and daily activity - echocardiographic measurements (LVEF, left ventricular ejection fraction; LVEDD, left ventricular end- diastolic diameter; LVESD, left ventricular end-systolic diameter; LAVI left atrial volume index; diastolic parameters; strain
The purpose of this prospective, randomized, double-blinded study is to further evaluate the safety and efficacy of varying doses of intravenous magnesium in the treatment of AFF RVR.
Compare the efficacy and safety between pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) alone versus PVI with left atrial (LA) posterior wall isolation (PWI) using pulsed-field ablation (PFA) in the treatment of patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF).
The purpose of this study is to compare and assess efficacy and safety between the study device "TS-RF system consisting of a electrosurgical system, general-purpose (TS-RF Generator) and a electrosurgical system electrode, hand-controlled, general-purpose, single-use (TS-RF Needle)" and the control device "needle, puncture, single-use (BRK Transseptal needle)", both of which are used for the transseptal puncture performed to enable left atrial access for the treatment of symptomatic arrhythmia and mitral stenosis and then to demonstrate that the study device is non-inferior to the control device.
