Filter by:A randomised controlled trial to assess the efficacy of staged hybrid ablation when compared with standard catheter ablation in patients with non-paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF)
Interventional, prospective, non-randomized, single-center, non-controlled clinical investigation as part of the premarket clinical evaluation of VX1+ medical device, aiming to verify that VX1+ in bidirectional configuration with auto-tagging function is both ergonomic and reliable for dispersed electrograms detection and automatic tagging on 3D-map in real-time.
In a cohort of patients electively treated for atrial arrhythmia with IV sotalol (initiation or dose escalation), this study will describe patient characteristics, short-term safety and efficacy, electrocardiographic monitoring, and PK and PD parameters (in a subset) associated with IV dosing approach.
An observational, prospective, cohort study aiming to assess the potential predictive role of cardiopulmonary exercise testing in the prognosis of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, in combination with echocardiographic indices and plasma biomarker values.
About 30% of ischemic strokes are cryptogenic. Patent Foramen Ovale (PFO) is present in about 25% of the general population. In cryptogenic strokes, PFO has been shown to be overrepresented and recent intervention studies have confirmed that PFO has a causal link with stroke. In patients with recent cryptogenic stroke, these randomized studies have shown at least 50%-reduction of recurrent neurological events after PFO percutaneous closure compared with medical therapy alone. At the The risk of AF reported in these studies in certainly largely underestimated as only symptomatic and recorded episodes of AF have been declared. Patients often report palpitations without a dia gnosis of AF made on the ECG or a Holter. Long term ECG monitoring provides more accurate data on AF incidence. Administration of flecainide has been shown to be effective in preventing Atrial arrhythmia and may be useful in preventing these Atrial arrhythmia(AA) episodes after PFO closure. To the knowledge of the investigators, there is no study assessing the efficacy of any antiarrhythmic drug in the prevention of AFafter PFO closure. AFLOAT will be the first randomized study to possibly validate flecainide to prevent Atrial arrhythmia in these patients.
Precise identification of the atrial fibrosis is essential for successful catheter ablation of atrial arrhythmias in patients with atrial fibrillation. Voltage mapping of endocardial electrograms is currently used to delineate the anatomical substrate, but this is influenced by the direction of the activation wave front and is limited by the patient-specific thresholds. Mapping of local myocardial electrical impedance may overcome these limitations.
The Pulsed Field Ablation System Study for Atrial Fibrillation (PFA-AF)
The study aims to evaluate and compare the incidence of atrial arrhythmias (including Post-Operative Atrial Fibrillation (POAF), atrial flutter, and atrial tachycardia) stratified by baseline Utah fibrosis stages and overall fibrosis (%) of the left atrial wall area. The investigators hypothesize that patients with a higher baseline Utah fibrosis staging will experience a higher incidence of POAF. The study also aims to evaluate and compare the in-hospital mortality, length-of-stay (LOS), complication rates (strokes, pneumonia, respiratory failure etc.) of the different Utah fibrosis stage cohorts. Perform cost analysis and compare between patients with POAF and patients without POAF. The investigators hypothesize that patients experiencing POAF will have a higher mortality rate, longer LOS, greater complications, and therefore, additional hospital costs.
This single-center observational registry follows contemporary efficacy and short-term complications of elective electric cardioversion.
Sacubitril-valsartan, an Angiotensin Receptor Blocker-Neprilysin Inhibitor (ARNI), currently marketed for the management of heart failure, has been shown to reduce cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in stage C heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. In stage C HFpEF, sacubitril-valsartan has also been shown to reduce left atrial volume index measured using echocardiography over a 9 month timeframe. The PARABLE study investigates the hypothesis that sacubitril-valsartan can provide benefits in terms of left atrial structure and function as well as left ventricular structure and function in asymptomatic (stage A/B HFpEF) patients. This is a prospective, randomised, double-blind, double-dummy, phase II study design. The patient population will have hypertension and/or diabetes together with preserved ejection fraction, elevated natriuretic peptide (NP) and abnormal left atrial volume index (LAVI, > 28 mL/m2).
