This is a single center randomized double blind controlled study of patients (BMI ≥ 27 kg/m2) with obesity and Atrial Fibrillation (AFIB) randomized to Tirzepatide vs. placebo. It is expected that the significant weight loss with Tirzepatide will result in improved control, management, symptom severity, and burden of AFIB at …
Objective: The purpose of this study is to determine if there is a difference in the recurrence rate of atrial fibrillation (AF) between a group of patients with AF and heart failure undergoing catheter ablation who are administered the SGLT2 inhibitor, Enavogliflozin, and a control group (placebo group). This study …
Postoperative atrial fibrillation is a major complication of cardiac surgery, which could lead to high morbidity and mortality, increase duration of hospital stay and increase the cost of treatment. New-onset atrial fibrillation after cardiac surgery is considered as a multifactorial phenomenon. Amiodarone, the most commonly used drug for cardioversion, is …
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with a five-fold increased risk of cerebrovascular stroke. While the risk of stroke in patients with known AF can be calculated via AF stroke prediction risk scores, the prediction of AF occurrence per se in individual patients remains difficult. We will recruit 250 patients with …
To investigate whether RFCA is superior to AADs in AF patients with HFpEF on the basis of optimized anti-heart-failure drug therapy regarding their longterm clinical outcomes.
The success rate of single-procedure atrial arrhythmia-free survival particularly ranged from 40% to 66% in persistent AF ablation. However, The surgical Cox maze III procedure has been established to be an effective curative strategy for AF with an AF-free survival rate of more than 95%. The main reason is the …
Background and Significance: In the United States approximately 220,000 patients undergo cardiac surgery per annum. Among potential complications, the incidence of atrial fibrillation (AF) is estimated at 30 - 60 %, and therefore presents the most common adverse event after cardiac surgery. Multiple complications may be associated with AF: Patients …
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to assess the benefit of early resumption versus late resumption of oral anticoagulation medication in adults with atrial fibrillation undergoing surgery for chronic subdural hematoma. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does anticoagulation resumption 5 days after surgery as compared …
Atrial fibrillation (AF) affects 1 in 4 individuals during their lifetime and continues to increase in frequency and impact. Exercise intervention has established benefits to improve AF symptoms and burden in clinical studies. However, lack of access to exercise programs has limited therapeutic adoption. The growth of technology-driven health care …
The goal of this observational study is to better understand the role of measuring troponin (a protein measured by a blood test) and coronary imaging in patients presenting with rapid atrial fibrillation (AF) The main questions this study aims to answer are: Are patients with a fast, irregular heartbeat (rapid …
