Active clinical trials for "Atrial Fibrillation"

This study is intended to assess the incidence and correlation to the development of peri-device leaks (PDLs), device related thrombosis (DRTs) and cerebral vascular accident (CVA)/transient ischemic attacks (TIAs) in association with left atrial appendage contrast flow (LAA-CF). It will be a multi-center, retrospective study. Approximately 100 subject charts will be reviewed.

The objective is to compare the progression of Atrial Fib (AF) burden by continuous monitoring in patients with recently diagnosed paroxysmal AF treated by catheter ablation (PVI) versus anti-arrhythmic drug (AAD) therapy.

This study will evaluate the safety and acute performance of the Globe® Mapping and Ablation System with the GPS™ Module intended to conduct electroanatomic mapping and ablation treatment of subjects with atrial fibrillation (AF).

The purpose of this pilot study is to examine the use of a personal health record to improve medication adherence among patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation taking dabigatran for primary prevention of embolic stroke.

The primary study goal is to explore the influence of pharmacist interventions on the effectiveness of warfarin treatment in a specific subpopulation.

Atrial fibrillation is when the heart's two upper chambers (called atria) beat chaotically and irregularly, out of coordination with the two lower chambers (called ventricles) of the heart. This can lead to blood clots forming in the heart chamber. Patients with atrial fibrillation will be treated with either 60 mg or 75 mg of edoxaban for up to 12 months, with a 2-4 week follow-up, after which their participation is complete. Blood samples will be collected before the first dose of study drug (Day 0), and on Days 30, 90 and 360 (at pre dose, 1-2 hours post dose and 4-8 hours post-dose).

Multistage low-energy pulses are being evaluated for their effect on atrial fibrillation during an acute testing procedure.

This study is being done to find out if patients taking Anti Arrhythmia Drugs (AADs) after cryoballoon ablation for atrial fibrillation, compared to patients who do not take Anti- Arrhythmic Drugs after an ablation affect Atrial Fibrillation from coming back. The study will also look at the side effects of the AADs.

Some people can develop an abnormal heart beat known as "Atrial fibrillation" or "AF" that puts them at risk of developing clots in the heart. Those clots can travel in the blood circulation to the brain and cause a brain attack ("a stroke"). To prevent those clots forming, blood thinners (anti-coagulants) are used. Apixaban is a blood thinner that works by stopping one of the blood substances required for clotting ("Factor Xa"). It is approved and used to prevent clots forming in people with "AF". Other established blood thinners work by stopping clotting substances being made, known as "Vitamin K antagonists" or "VKAs". An example of this type is Warfarin (Coumadin). The good effects of all blood thinners are preventing clots, and they may also have bad effects of increasing the chance of bleeding. People with "AF", abnormal heart beat, may benefit from changing it back to a normal regular rhythm, known medically as "cardioversion". When this is done, people are currently most commonly treated with a "VKA" blood thinner (e.g. warfarin). The purpose of this study is to assess the good and bad effects ("efficacy" and "safety") of apixaban compared with warfarin in people with "AF" in whom an early cardioversion is planned.

The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of diltiazem on the pharmacokinetics of single-dose BMS-914392 in healthy subjects.
