Diagnosis of Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation by a Smartwatch
The incidence of postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) after on-pump cardiac surgery remains high, at around 30%. POAF increases the risk of cardiac decompensation, stroke, acute myocardial infarction, and death, resulting in increased morbidity and mortality, hospital length of stay, and cost of patient management. Episodes of POAF are usually paroxysmal …
Low Voltage-Directed Catheter Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation
A two-pronged approach to evaluate long term success of non-paroxysmal ablation when using a: specified low voltage-directed with pulmonary vein isolation (LD+PVI) approach compared to , an approach of pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) alone.
Disrupted Sleep and Concurrent Ectopy or Atrial Fibrillation
Whereas the available evidence mostly supports chronic sleep disruption as a risk factor for incident AF, less is known about the near-term risk of a discrete atrial fibrillation (AF) episode following a night of disrupted or poor-quality sleep. This prospective, randomized, case-crossover study aims to examine the acute effects of …
Impact of Atrial Fibrillation Ablation on Sleep Parameters.
Assessment of Sleep Parameters Using Polygraphy in Patients with Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation Qualified for Pulmonary Vein Isolation - A Prospective Observational Study: Afib Ablation and Hypopnea Index - The "AAHI" Study Principal Investigator: Dr. Paweł Basiukiewicz, MD, PhD Study Sponsor: Primula Clinics sp. z o.o. Żyrardowska 31, 05-825 Grodzisk Mazowiecki, …
Concurrent Training in Patients Undergoing Atrial Fibrillation Ablation.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is an irregular and often very fast heart rhythm, is considered the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia in adults worldwide, and its incidence and prevalence are increasing. Currently, the estimated prevalence of AF in adults is 2-4%, and is projected to increase 2.3-fold. AF is associated with …
Prevention Atrial Fibrillation by BOTulinum Toxin Injections (BOTAF)
Over the past few years, research has focused on the prevention of atrial fibrillation (AF) after cardiac surgery, but highly effective interventions are still missing. Postoperative AF remains the most common complication after cardiac surgery, with an incidence of 10 to 50%. This complication is usually a transient condition that …
The Southern-Norway Post-Stroke Atrial Fibrillation Study
This study evaluates whether a procedure using a new wireless heart sensor patch is equal to or better than the standard hospital procedures and equipment at detecting an irregular heartbeat called Atrial Fibrillation (AF) after an ischemic stroke. Atrial fibrillation is a major cause of stroke, but it can be …
Mobile Health Technology-Enabled AFib Management
The overall objective of this proposal is to evaluate the effect on quality of life of a comprehensive digital atrial fibrillation (AFib) management tool that will empower patients to a) take an active role in learning about AFib management options, starting and adhering to evidence-based therapies and lifestyle changes and …
Treatment Of Atrial Fibrillation In Preserved Cardiac Function Heart Failure
Heart failure (HF) with preserved left ventricular function (pEF) is difficult clinical syndrome to treat effectively with few evidence based therapies. Atrial fibrillation (AF) is now an important co-morbidity being observed in 43% of patients with HFpEF. Rhythm control has not been studied in this population. Catheter ablation and antiarrhythmic …
Exercise Training in Patients With Persistent or Permanent Atrial Fibrillation
The main purpose of this project is to evaluate the effects of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) compared to moderate-intensity continuous exercise training (MICE) and standard care on exercise capacity and quality of life in patients with persistent or permanent atrial fibrillation. Positive findings are vitally important for these patients, given …
