Filter by:This study hypothesize that injecting calcium chloride (CaCl2) into the major atrial ganglionated plexus (GPs) during on pump Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) can reduce the incidence of Post operative Atrial fibrillation in the first 7 days after surgery.The study is designed to be prospective interventional study two armed RCT for on pump CABG patient. The intervention arm will be injected with Calcium chloride in the four major atrial ganglionic plexus The control arm will be injected with sodium chloride to determine the effect of Calcium chloride on Post CABG Atrial fibrillation
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).
This is a prospective, randomized controlled, single-blind, multi-center clinical trial study aiming to investigate whether the strategy of posterior wall isolation (PWI) assisted by vein of Marshall ethanol infusion (VOMEI) could improve the success rate of persistent atrial fibrillation ablation.
Based on the data of inpatients with hypertension and a cross-sectional study with a large sample size, this study aims to find the early warning value of the left anteroposterior atrial diameter for the possible occurrence of atrial fibrillation in patients with hypertension, and compare the advantages and disadvantages of the above two methods for the early warning of the risk of atrial fibrillation in patients with hypertension, so as to achieve the purpose of early identification of high-risk groups that may develop atrial fibrillation.
Despite a clear definition in the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines, the differentiation between paroxysmal (self-terminating) and persistent (nonself- terminating) atrial fibrillation (AF) remains challenging in clinical practice. Some patients with presumed persistent AF are planned for electrical cardioversion (ECV) but appear to have a paroxysmal pattern or present in sinus rhythm (SR) at the scheduled ECV appointment. This results in unnecessary visits or interventions for patients, and costs and burden for the hospitals and health insurances. Based on the feasibility of the TeleCheck-AF approach, which is an on-demand mobile health (mHealth) infrastructure incorporating app-based heart rate and rhythm monitoring to support remote AF management through teleconsultation, the investigators aim to extend this mHealth approach to the management of presumed persistent AF patients planned for ECV.
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.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most preventable cause of stroke. However, despite widely available risk stratification tools, numerous options for oral anticoagulation, and evidence-based practice guidelines, anticoagulation for stroke prevention in AF is consistently under-prescribed. In a pair of observational cohort analyses within the Mass General Brigham (MGB) health system, prescription of anticoagulation for stroke prevention in AF was less frequent in ambulatory clinic patients than in those who were hospitalized at the time of assessment (46.9% vs. 57.2%). Two single academic medical center randomized controlled trials demonstrated success for increasing adherence to guideline recommendations for stroke prevention in AF. To address the feasibility and impact of a computerized decision support (CDS) strategy in the non-tertiary care, community medical center setting, this study will involve a multicenter, cluster-randomized controlled trial of a more sophisticated CDS focused not only on implementation stroke prevention but also on bleeding risk assessment and management.
This feasibility study will be conducted to demonstrate the initial safety and effectiveness of the CellFX® nsPFA™ Cardiac Clamp in performing a box lesion around the 4 pulmonary veins as an isolated procedure or as a part of a more extensive surgical ablation set in conjunction with concomitant cardiac surgical procedure.
