Comparison of LAA-Closure vs Oral Anticoagulation in Patients With NVAF and Status Post Intracranial Bleeding.
Atrial fibrillation is the most common cardiac arrhythmia. In atrial fibrillation, there is a risk that clots can form in the heart, especially in the left atrium. If these clots come loose, there is a risk of stroke. To prevent strokes, patients with atrial fibrillation and status post ICB can …
Pericardiotomy in Cardiac Surgery
PRINCE is an international, multicentre, randomized controlled trial of posterior pericardiotomy in patients without a history of atrial fibrillation (AF) or flutter undergoing cardiac surgery.
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 …
Anticoagulation for Stroke Prevention In Patients With Recent Episodes of Perioperative AF After Noncardiac Surgery
Multinational, investigator-initiated study of oral anticoagulation versus no anticoagulation for the prevention of stroke and other adverse cardiovascular events in patients with transient perioperative atrial fibrillation after noncardiac surgery and additional stroke risk factors.
Left Atrial Appendage Arrhythmogenic and Thrombogenic Substrate
The purpose of the project is to elucidate whether it is possible to identify which patients are at risk of forming blood clots that can cause stroke based on analysis of the electrocardiogram. In connection with the operation, the small pouch known as the auricle of the heart is closed, …
The CONFORM Pivotal Trial
The CLAAS® device will be evaluated for safety and efficacy by establishing its performance is non-inferior to the commercially available WATCHMAN® and Amulet™ left atrial appendage closure devices in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation. Patients who are eligible for the trial will be randomized to receive either the CLAAS device …
Anticoagulation for New-Onset Post-Operative Atrial Fibrillation After CABG
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness (prevention of thromboembolic events) and safety (major bleeding) of adding oral anticoagulation (OAC) to background antiplatelet therapy in patients who develop new-onset post-operative atrial fibrillation (POAF) after isolated coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. All patients with a qualifying …
Conduction System Pacing With Left Bundle Branch Pacing as Compared to Standard Right Ventricular Pacing
High burden right ventricular (RV) pacing has been shown to increase cardiovascular mortality, incidence of heart failure (HF), worsen left ventricular (LV) function and accelerate the development of atrial fibrillation (AF). High percentage ventricular pacing and wider paced QRS in the setting of normal baseline LV ejection fractions have consistently …
Combination of Antiplatelet and Anticoagulation for AIS Patients Witn Concomitant NVAF and Extracranial/Intracranial Artery Stenosis
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the safety and effectiveness of anticoagulation combined with antiplatelet therapy in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients with concomitant non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) and extracranial/intracranial artery stenosis. Participants will be 1:1 randomized into anticoagulation alone or anticoagulation combined with antiplatelet therapy. The …
Amplatzer Amulet LAAO vs. NOAC
The objective of this trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Amulet LAA occluder compared to NOAC therapy in patients with non-valvular AF at increased risk for ischemic stroke and who are recommended for long-term NOAC therapy. The clinical investigation is a prospective, randomized, multicenter active control …
