Active clinical trials for "Atrial Fibrillation"

The Impulse Dynamics Optimizer Device is a Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved; commercially available device indicated for patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Many candidates of this device have a previously implanted cardiovascular implantable electronic device (CIED)- internal cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) or permanent pacemaker (PM). Patients with heart failure are at high risk for both atrial and ventricular cardiac arrhythmias. The aim of this study is to evaluate patients for Atrial fibrillation (AF) burden episode data obtained from interrogation of their CIED 8 months or greater after Optimizer implant and compare arrhythmia burden 6 months before Optimizer Cardiac Contractility Modulation (CCM) device insertion to 8 months or greater after Optimizer insertion (after 2 month blanking period).

Prospective case-control study comparing pulsed field ablation for atrial fibrillation under mild conscious sedation vs standard of care (general anaesthesia).

This study aimed to detect and diagnose atrial fibrillation early by conducting a screening test for atrial fibrillation using a continuous electrocardiography monitoring device for those who have undergone a health screening examination. Early detection through atrial fibrillation screening tests in high-risk patients with stroke is intended to prevent stroke by starting stroke prevention treatment early. It is intended to detect asymptomatic atrial fibrillation patients early through examination and ultimately improve the quality of life.

Atrial fibrillation is a common complication of both cancer and anticancer drugs but the consequences of such events remain poorly known and are not adressed in both phase III oncological trials and cardiological guidelines. The objective of this study is to create a prospective multicenter international registry of adult patients with an active cancer and experiencing atrial fibrillation to study major cardiovascular events occurrence during a 1 year follow-up.

This is a prospective, single center, non-randomized, open-label, single arm study in which we will gather data and physician input for the assessment and further development of the KODEX - EPD functions for assessing tissue pressure, tissue thickness, lesion transmurality.

Arterial Fibrillation (AF) is well-recognized as a cause for cryptogenic Acute Ischemic Stroke (AIS) and is associated with Silent Brain Infarction (SBI). However, the role of AF in the formation of lesions (SBIs) is less well established than its role in AIS and needs clarification. The investigators hypothesize that continuous rhythm monitoring will yield a similar incidence of AF diagnosis in patients with SBI as compared to patients with cryptogenic AIS. The primary objective is to assess the cumulative incidence of AF diagnosis at 24 months in patients with SBI.

The purpose of DEFENSE-ELDERLY is to identify the prevalence of AF and evaluate the clinical impact of AF in elderly ESUS patients and no other known sources of stroke besides a high-risk patent foramen ovale, and compare it with elderly ESUS patients without high-risk PFO (no PFO or non-high risk PFOs)

MACACOD is a clinical record in the usual clinical practice of direct oral anticoagulants (dabigatran, rivaroxaban, apixaban and edoxaban). Design: single-center, observational, prospective, uncontrolled study of anticoagulated patients with any direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) with atrial fibrillation or venous thromboembolism to determine the incidence of serious complications (thromboembolic or hemorrhagic) in real life

The Micra MC1VR01 or Micra AVMC1AVR1 Transcatheter Pacing System (Medtronic, Inc., Minneapolis, MN, USA) has become a major breakthrough as an alternative to standard transvenous pacemakers. The aim of this multi-center study is to assess the clinical outcomes of patients implanted with Micra LLPM in real life, in different clinical scenarios.

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia. As an independent predictor of cardiovascular mortality, particularly for stroke, its management is a real public health issue. AF is associated with diabetes, obesity, hypertension, heart failure and, occasionally, hyperthyroidism. Atrial fibrosis is one of the major players in the genesis and maintenance of AF. It has a strong impact on rhythmic prognosis and treatment success. Currently the AF ablation is the treatment recommended by the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) and by the American Society of Cardiology. The rate of AF recurrence is variable according to the patient characteristics and remains unfortunately today difficult to predict. Abnormal concentrations of circulating biomarkers reflecting the underlying pathophysiologic mechanisms of myocardial fibrosis could help to identify patients at higher risk of developing AF and/or AF recurrence after ablation. Thus, the development of simple, reliable and valid biological tests of atrial fibrosis would allow the clinicians i) to estimate the potential success of AF ablation; ii) to predict AF recurrence; iv) and to propose a AF personalized therapeutic approach. The main objective of PROFIB-AF study is to identify, among biological markers (ICTP, PICP, PIIINP, sRAGE, AGE, Galectin 3, sSt2, microRNAs) of myocardial fibrosis, those which can predict the recurrence risk after AF ablation.
