Filter by:The aim of this non-interventional study is to describe patient's perception of anticoagulant treatment when using Pradaxa to prevent stroke and systemic embolism while suffering from atrial fibrillation (according to its approved indication in the approved dosages of 110 milligrams or 150 milligrams twice daily) in comparison to standard care using Vitamin K Antagonist (VKA).
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate whether, in patients with first-ever atherothrombotic or lacunar stroke without any previous history of atrial fibrillation (AF)/atrial flutter (AFL)/atrial tachycardia (AT), the detection of AF/AFL/AT (silent or symptomatic) by using a continuous cardiac rhythm monitoring with implantable loop recorder (ILR) during the first 12 months of observation is higher than the detection by using a standard cardiac monitoring (physical exam, 12-lead electrocardiogram [ECG] at baseline, 3, 6, and 12 months and Holter ECG at 3 months) in the same period of time.
The study cohort will consist of up to 50 patients who are candidates for Left Atrial Appendage (LAA) closure in whom oral anticoagulation is contraindicated. Subjects evaluated for left atrial appendage closure will be screened for inclusion and consented prior to their procedure. If the anatomy is favorable for placement of the Lariat® device, the procedure will be performed at one of the participating centers. If anatomy is not favorable, the patient will be excluded from the study and managed using best care practices by his or her physician.
The overall objective of this proposal is to execute a real-world database analysis to evaluate hospital readmissions among hospitalized nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) patients in the U.S Primary objective: To determine the proportions of NVAF patients with bleeding-related hospital readmissions that occur within 30 days of the hospitalization of NVAF patients treated with the new oral anticoagulants (NOACs), dabigatran, rivaroxaban, apixaban or warfarin in the inpatient setting Secondary objectives: - To determine the cost associated with bleeding-related hospital readmissions that occur within 30 days of the hospitalization of NVAF patients treated with dabigatran, rivaroxaban, apixaban or warfarin in the inpatient setting - To determine the proportions of NVAF patients with all cause hospital readmissions and the associated costs that occur within 30 days of the hospitalization of NVAF patients treated with dabigatran, rivaroxaban, apixaban or warfarin in the inpatient setting.
The multicenter registry will collect clinical data from 1600 patients with non valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) and chronic kidney disease (eGFR 15-49 mL/min per 1.73 m2). The overall objective of this registry is to assess chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression and clinical outcomes with regard to anticoagulation strategies in NVAF patients with eGFR 15-49 mL/min per 1.73 m2 in routine clinical practice.
The purpose of the study is to estimate the impact of bleeding events in patients in the UK with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) treated with vitamin K antagonists (VKA).
The central questions of the study can be summarized as follows: What stroke / death rates are the result of the use of the following treatment strategies: no anticoagulation with vitamin-k-antagonists (VKAs) or novel oral anticoagulants (NOACs), anticoagulation with VKAs and anticoagulation with NOACs (all). What other thromboembolic complication rates resulting from the use of these treatment strategies? What heavy bleeding rates resulting from the defined management strategies? The analysis is based on a data set of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF)(01/01/2010 - 30/06/2014). 2010 is used as the reference period and 01/01/2011-30/06/2013 as the inclusion period. The minimum observation time per patient is 12 months. Used is a data base of the AOK PLUS as well as the AOK Baden-Württemberg and AOK Bayern. The aim of the study is to compare clinical outcomes between the different treatment strategies (frequency of events and time to first event). The influence of alternative treatment strategies is measured on the basis of three different methodological approaches: unadjusted comparison of event council and time to first event between the defined patient groups; matched-pair comparison (propensity score matching) between the different groups of patients (treatment strategies) and multivariate analysis using time to event (Cox proportional hazards model) as the dependent variable.
In this clinical investigation, the safety, feasibility and performance of the novel EnSite™ HD Grid Catheter mapping system for advanced high-density three-dimensional mapping will be studied in patients undergoing catheter ablation procedures for the treatment of non-paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) or left atrial tachycardia (AT).
Aim of the present prospective, single-centre study is to determine the outcome after pure PVI using HeartLight™ in 100 patients with different extents of LA-LVA. The latter will be assessed by an electro-anatomical voltage map using a commercial 3D mapping system (CARTO, Biosense Webster).
