Can Patients With Atrial Fibrillation Safely Discontinue Anticoagulant Therapy After Cardiac Surgery? (ATLAAC)
Left atrial appendage (LAA) closure has become a frequent addition to oral anticoagulation in patients with atrial fibrillation who undergo cardiac surgery. The procedure significantly reduces the risk of stroke and systemic embolism, which may render anticoagulation unnecessary or even harmful when considering the associated increased risk of bleeding. A …
Coronary Computed Tomography AngioGraphy Prior to Catheter Ablation in Patients With Atrial FIBrillation
The purpose of this randomized, controlled trial is to investigate whether coronary computed tomography (CT) angiography prior to catheter ablation and derived treatment (medical anti-ischemic and multimodality treatment and/or mechanical revascularization) can improve clinical outcomes in patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing catheter ablation. A sub-study will investigate the effect of …
DIscontinuation of Anticoagulation Guided by Smartwatch in Post-ablation Patients With Atrial Fibrillation
The DIAMOND-AF trial, an investigator-initiated multicenter study, randomizes 5,694 stroke-free AF patients with a CHA₂DS₂-VA score of 2-6 post-successful ablation to either smartwatch-guided intermittent direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) therapy (30-day treatment triggered by AF episodes ≥1 hour single or ≥2 hours/24h) or continuous DOAC therapy. The trial assesses the superiority …
Stroke Prophylaxis With Apixaban in Chronic Kidney Disease Stage 5 Patients With Atrial Fibrillation
Objective: To study the efficacy and safety of apixaban as stroke prophylaxis in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 5 and atrial fibrillation (AF) with or without dialysis treatment. The study hypothesis is that compared to no anticoagulation, apixaban reduces the incidence of ischemic stroke without causing an unacceptable …
Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion Versus Novel Oral Anticoagulation for Stroke Prevention in Atrial Fibrillation
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is progressively common, and increases the risk of stroke five-fold. Oral anticoagulation is the mainstay therapy; however, it increases the risk of bleeding. Moreover, 30% with AF and at risk of stroke are not in relevant anticoagulation. The randomized PROTECT-AF trial has demonstrated the superiority of left …
Danish Evaluation of Early Catheter Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation in Patients With Heart Failure
The DanAblate-HF trial will investigate whether early catheter ablation treatment for atrial fibrillation in patients with heart failure is superior to standard treatment.
RECURrence of Atrial Fibrillation After Cardioversion of Patients Randomized to Dapagliflozin or Usual Care
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if drug dapagliflozin, a sodium-glucose transport-2 inhibitor, works to treat atrial fibrillation in adults. The main question it aims to answer is: • Does the drug dapagliflozin reduce the recurrence rate of atrial fibrillation? Researchers will compare drug dapagliflozin to standard …
Preventing Stroke, Premature Death and Cognitive Decline in a Broader Community of Patients With Atrial Fibrillation
The DaRe2 approach (healthcare Data for pragmatic clinical Research in the NHS - primary 2 secondary) is designed to operationalise efficient, nationwide, primary care approaches for randomised trials embedded within the UK National Health Service (NHS), providing automated screening, targeted patient enrolment and 'no-visit' follow-up through innovations in big data …
Artificial Intelligence Guided Patient Selection for Atrial Fibrillation Catheter Ablation: Randomized Clinical Trial (AI-PAFA Trial)
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a major cardiovascular disease with a prevalence of 1.7% of the total population in Korea, associated with 25% of ischemic stroke and 30% of heart failure, and is a major cardiovascular disease that doubles the risk of dementia. AF catheter ablation (AFCA) is an effective procedure …
Early Atrial Fibrillation Ablation for Stroke Prevention in Patients with High Comorbidity Burden (EASThigh-AFNET 11)
EASThigh-AFNET 11 is an international, prospective, randomized, open, blinded endpoint assessment, multicenter trial (Treatment Strategy trial). The objective of EASThigh-AFNET 11 is to investigate whether early atrial fibrillation ablation in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and a high comorbidity burden (CHA2DS2-VASc ≥4) reduces cardiovascular events (stroke, cardiovascular death, or heart …
