Filter by:The VALIDATION study aims to evaluate the performance of four state-of-the-art digital heart rhythm devices (Preventicus®, FibriCheck®, Apple Watch®, 6L Kardia Mobile®) for the detection of atrial fibrillation.
This multicenter international prospective cohort study will include patients with AIS with a known or newly diagnosed anticoagulant-naïve AF. All centers will use the same transcranial Doppler machine for one-hour monitoring with bilateral 2-MHz probes within 24 hours of symptom onset. Recordings will be analyzed for MES by a blinded central reader. The primary aim is to determine the proportion of patients with MES and the association of MES with functional outcomes assessed by a modified Rankin scale (mRS) score at 90 days.
The single-center HERA AFIb registry was created to assess real-world prevalence, demographic characteristics and management of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) in the era of novel oral anticoagulant regimes (NOAC) presenting in the emergency department (ED) of University of Heidelberg
Current Knowledge: Countless studies have been conducted to study the relationship between OSA and AF, and a significant association has been established between both diseases, owing to the numerous shared risk factors and a wide variety of pathophysiological changes resulting from both diseases being relevant to each other. Our study inspects this relationship from a cardiovascular standpoint, examining the prevalence of OSA in existing AF patients, which could be interpreted as AF being a risk factor for OSA development.
This is a retrospective cohort study of radiofrequency ablation for the treatment atrial fibrillation(AF). Based on the electrophysiological phenomena found in these cases, the investigators propose a hypothesis regarding the underlying electrophysiological mechanism of AF, as well as a novel approach for catheter ablation of AF.
Background: quality of life is impaired in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. The purpose of this study is to explore the mediating effects of self-efficacy, coping, depression, and anxiety on the quality of life of patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Methods: It is a cross-sectional study trial. This study aims to enroll 100 patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Illness perceptions (Brief Illness Perceptions Questionnaire; BIPQ), coping styles (Carver Brief-COPE scale; B-COPE), depression Patient Health Questionnaire-9 ,PHQ-9),anxiety (The Generalized Anxiety Disorder Questionnaire, GAD 7) and quality of life (12-item Short Form Health Survey,SF12) will be analysed. This study intends to use correlation analysis and mediation analyses to assess the mediating effects of self-efficacy, coping, depression and anxiety on the quality of life of patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation.
The purpose of this study is to assess the performance and safety of using the investigational catheter.
High Power Short Duration Ablation Compared to Moderate Power Long Duration Ablation for Pulmonary Vein Isolation: safety and acute procedural outcome
Radiotherapy associated Atrial Fibrillation (RADAF) is an observational study to evaluate onset time and frequency of atrial fibrillation in patients with thoracic malignancies and breast cancer. Each patient will have 12 lead ECG prior, and daily during radiotherapy.
Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) was commonly impaired in atrial fibrillation patients. Depression, anxiety, and illness perception are psychological correlates of HRQoL. Our previous study had shown good effects of CBT on the quality of life in AF patients. This study aimed to establish the long-term efficacy of CBT on both psychological distress and HRQoL. Method: The study was a prospective, open study, pseudo-randomization with a pretest-posttest design and a 6-month follow-up. A total of 102 patients with paroxysmal AF were enrolled, and 90 patients were assigned (1:1) to 10 weeks of CBT focused on anxiety symptoms or to treat as usual in the end. Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-12), GAD-7, PHQ-9, University of Toronto Atrial Fibrillation (AFSS), and Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire (BIPQ) were measured as outcomes.
