View clinical trials related to Atrial Fibrillation Recurrent.
Filter by:Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the cause of 20% of strokes, and the risk of stroke in a person suffering from this arrhythmia increases by 5 times. Ischemic stroke in patients with AF is often fatal and, compared with stroke of other etiology, leads to the most pronounced disability and more often recurs. Accordingly, the risk of death in patients with AF-related stroke is 2 times higher, and treatment costs increase 1.5 times. The main interventional method of treating AF, available in most medical institutions, is the use of radio frequency and/or cryoenergy to eliminate destructive damage to the left atrium (LA). The aim of this study is to compare two different interventional methods and identify predictors of recurrence in patients with persistent and long-term AF.
This is a prospective and observational study. The investigator speculated that the use of DC in patients with paroxysmal AF can serve as a predictor for early and late AF recurrence following CPVI.
To test the hypothesis that structural changes documented by ICE after pulmonary vein deconnection by RF can predict AF recurrences
Study name: Sacubitril Valsartan in Preventing the Recurrence of Atrial Fibrillation After Ablation in Elderly Hypertensive Patients With Atrial Fibrillation. Medicine: sacubitril/valsartan (100mg) and valsartan (80mg). Rationale: The latest guidelines represent an intensified management approach to reduce or prevent morbidity associated with atrial fibrillation. They provide stronger and more specific recommendations for catheter ablation (CA) use. However, not all patients maintain sinus rhythm after CA and both early and late relapses of AF can occur in many patients. Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of sacubitril/valsartan in preventing atrial fibrillation recurrences after ablation in elderly hypertensive patients with atrial fibrillation. Study design: This is a 12-month prospective, randomized, active-controlled, open-label, multi-center study, with two treatment groups: sacubitril/valsartan (100mg tablet) and valsartan (80mg tablet). Study population: Men or women aged between 65 and 79 years will be screened for hypertension. Eligible patients should be untreated and treated atrial fibrillation patients with clinic systolic/diastolic blood pressure ≥130/80 mmHg, who are going to receive catheter ablation procedure. Patients should have abilities to understand the study requirements and provide informed consent. Randomization and treatment: After screening period by centers, eligible patients will be randomly divided into 2 groups, taking one pill of sacubitril/valsartan (100mg tablet) or valsartan (80mg tablet). Follow-up: After meeting the inclusion criteria, there will be 1-week screening period. Clinic blood pressure, ambulatory blood pressure, echocardiography, concomitant medication records and adverse event records will be collected at randomization period. Then patients will be randomly assigned into sacubitril/valsartan group and valsartan group. The treatment will be observed for 12 months. There will be 4 visiting points in the treatment period, which will be the 1st month, 3rd month, 6th month and 12th month. Sample size: A total of 300 patients should be enrolled in total. Timeline: After obtaining the approval of Ethics Committee of Ruijin Hospital, recruitment will start. Patients enrollment and follow-up are expected to be performed from October 2022 to December 2024.
This is a single-center prospective observational cohort study of atrial fibrillation patients treated with radiofrequency ablation.
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 aim of this study is to investigate whether P-wave duration in a baseline surface 12-lead ECGs correlates with recurrence of AF recurrence post successful ablation at the time of the procedure.
This is a single centre prospective data registry. In this study atrial conduction characteristics of extended surface Electrocardiograms (esECG), biomarkers and genetic analysis will be performed before ablation, before discharge and 3 months after catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) and compared to routine clinical follow-up data. The objective of this registry is to establish a data registry of patients undergoing ablation of AF. Supplementary to the routine clinical diagnostic an esECG and an analysis of biomarkers will be performed and compared to clinical and outcome data.
