Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation in Cardiac Surgery
This multicenter observational study aims to investigate the incidence and identify risk factors associated with postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) in patients undergoing cardiac surgery at three medical centers in Thailand. The study will examine patient characteristics, surgical factors, and anesthetic management practices that may contribute to the development of this …
Progression of Atrial Fibrillation in the Young
The purpose of this study is to investigate the presence and magnitude of structural changes of the heart and their long-term development in young patients with atrial Fibrillation (AF), studied by echocardiographic measurements and plasma biomarkers and their association to AF burden, studied using long-term ECG
DOAC in Chinese Patients With Atrial Fibrillation
Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) have emerged as safe and efficacious ischemic stroke prophylaxis for non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). All four DOACs - apixaban, dabigatran, edoxaban, and rivaroxaban - were shown to reduce the risk of major bleeding compared to warfarin. The predictable pharmacokinetic profiles of DOACs also favour their use …
Tracking Atrial Fibrillation After Intensive Care Admission
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a heart problem that causes an irregular heartbeat. It can cause the heart to beat more rapidly and reduce the heart's ability to pump blood around the body efficiently, causing heart failure. It also increases the risk of blood clots forming inside the heart. These clots …
Atrial Fibrillation Patients Treated With Catheter Ablation
This is a single-center prospective observational cohort study of atrial fibrillation patients treated with radiofrequency ablation.
First-time Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation Registry
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a prevalent cardiac arrhythmia affecting millions globally, with projections indicating a doubling of cases by 2050. AF is linked to heightened cardiovascular risks like stroke and increased healthcare costs. Ablation, targeting the arrhythmia substrate, is a method to manage AF, yet recurrence rates remain high (20-45% …
Mechanisms for Atrial Fibrillation in Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common rhythm disorder and involves an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and death, impaired quality of life and a high proportion of healthcare consumption. An important risk factor is obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). However, it is not fully understood why OSA induces AF. It …
Inflammation and Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation in Cardiac Surgery
Postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) is a common complication after cardiac surgery, marked by an irregular and rapid heart rate, and associated with increased morbidity, longer hospital stays, and higher costs. Its complex pathophysiology involves atrial remodeling, inflammation, and autonomic dysregulation. Surgical trauma and cardiopulmonary bypass trigger an inflammatory response, releasing …
Subclinical Atrial Fibrillation Home Monitoring in Hypertensive Patients
Atrial fibrillation is a highly prevalent and incidental arrhythmia, often asymptomatic, and frequently detected incidentally or in association with a stroke. Subclinical atrial fibrillation increases cardioembolic risk, highlighting the need for timely diagnosis. New wireless devices capable of recording heart rhythm, combined with innovative artificial intelligence tools, could be useful …
COMParison of Algorithms for Rotational Evaluation in Atrial Fibrillation
This is a cohort study to evaluate algorithms for mapping atrial fibrillation by mapping atrial structure and mapping electrical activity to detect focal and rotational activity.
