Filter by:To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the left atrial appendage occlusion with WATCHMAN Device in prevention of stroke and bleeding in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR).
This study seeks to determine the efficacy of single coil defibrillation leads for cardioversion of persistent atrial fibrillation.
Primary research question: For adults surviving spontaneous (non-traumatic) symptomatic intracranial haemorrhage with persistent/paroxysmal atrial fibrillation/flutter (AF), does starting full treatment dose oral anticoagulation (OAC) result in a beneficial net reduction of all serious vascular events compared with not starting OAC? Trial design: Investigator-led, multicentre, randomised, open, assessor-masked, parallel group, clinical trial of investigational medicinal product (CTIMP) prescribing strategies. Investigators plan for a pilot phase, followed by a safety phase.
When to start anticoagulation in patients with an acute ischaemic stroke and atrial fibrillation (AF) is a relevant unanswered question in clinical practice. Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are highly effective for secondary stroke prevention in these patients, but DOACs were never initiated <7 days after stroke onset in recent trials. The ELAN trial will determine the net benefit of early versus late initiation of DOACs in patients with acute ischaemic stroke related to AF. The main objective is to estimate the net benefit of early versus late initiation of DOACs in patients with acute ischaemic stroke related to AF. The secondary objectives are to assess all vascular events and all-cause mortality after early initiation of DOACs in patients with acute ischaemic stroke related to AF compared to late initiation.
Single-center, double-blinded, randomized, controlled safety and feasibility pilot study of high dose IV ascorbic acid (200mg/kg) over 24 hours, divided into four doses and administered every six hours with a 30 minute IV infusion time per dose, compared to matched placebo infusion
The purposes of this study are to assess the prevalence of patients with a low risk of stroke or systemic embolism based on a CHA2DS2-VASc score among patients who have an AF-related thromboembolism and to identify the clinical and laboratory risk factors associated with thromboembolism in AF patients with a CHA2DS2-VA score of 0 or 1.
The study was to retrospectively analyse the efficacy and safety of LAA closure using the LAmbre in our center from April 2014 to November 2015.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety, efficacy and efficiency of rapid anticoagulation reversal with protamine sulfate versus routine activated clotting time (ACT) monitoring in patients undergoing catheter based ablation of atrial fibrillation.
The present study has been designed to describe the health-related quality of life in patients with non valvular atrial fibrillation who have been prescribed a specific anticoagulant treatment for their non valvular atrial fibrilation at least 6 months prior to study initiation. It will be conducted in Departments of Internal Medicine from approximately 50 centers in Spain. It consists of an only visit that will coincide with one of those performed by the patients as part of routine follow-up of their disease. 500 patients seen in internal medicine are planned to be included in the study
Patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), aortic (valve) or mitral valve surgery are at risk of developing postoperative and new-onset atrial fibrillation (AF), but adequate risk prediction is currently impossible. This study aims to discover tissue and circulating microRNAs and protein biomarkers that may help to unravel the pathophysiological processes underlying AF and are potential tools for risk stratification and prognosis or may become future targets of therapy. This study will be a single-center cohort study of 150 patients undergoing cardiac surgery, which will constitute the beginning of the follow-up period. Left atrial appendages, whole blood and epicardial mappings will be collected. Patients will be followed for 2 years with regular holter investigations to detect postoperative and new-onset AF.
