Prospective observational study on quality of life with postoperative atrial fibrillation after cardiac surgery using SF-36 and qualitative questions
A pilot N-of-1 randomized controlled trial evaluating the effectiveness of a personalized CPAP intervention in reducing atrial fibrillation (AF) burden and improving AF-related quality of life in patients with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
Per the 2021 National Survey on Drug Use and Health administered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 85% of all American adults consume alcohol. Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia, affecting more than 10 million individuals in U.S., comprising 4.5% of the adult population. Although alcohol abstinence clearly reduces AF in heavy drinkers, observational data comparing the health effects of limited consumption versus abstention are conflicting. The Mediterranean diet is one of the few that has demonstrated clear cardiovascular benefits in a randomized study-this diet allows for the consumption of red wine (or high polyphenol/ low alcohol alcohol), generally not more than one drink in 24 hours, with meals, avoiding spirits and binge drinking. The effect of the "Mediterranean drinking pattern" on AF risk compared to alcohol abstinence remains unknown. This single center, randomized, controlled trial aims to compare the effects of a digital health intervention to encourage durable alcohol abstinence versus allowing guideline-adherent moderate alcohol consumption on AF severity. The knowledge gained from this study may be used to determine optimal thresholds for alcohol use among AF patients.
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 and diagnostics, recognized as an emerging priority by the American Heart Association, offers an opportunity for a pragmatic and patient-centered approach to meet this need. EASE-AF is a prospective, interventional study with a sequential run-in control to evaluate if a digital health-driven, patient-centered exercise intervention improves AF symptoms and burden. The research team will enroll 120 patients with symptomatic, paroxysmal AF. The main impact of this study will be the establishment of evidence for a novel, pragmatic paradigm for a patient-centered, digital technology-driven personalized exercise intervention for patients with AF.
This is a single center randomized double blind controlled study of patients (BMI\> 30 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 12 months.
To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Argá Medtech CSE Ablation System in the treatment of atrial fibrillation.
The purpose of this pragmatic study is to evaluate the safety, performance and effectiveness of the FARAPULSE catheter system (FARAWAVE catheter used in combination with the FARASTAR generator), to treat patients with atrial fibrillation during clinically-indicated ablation procedures
The ReMATCH Study is a prospective, single arm, open label, multi-center, study utilizing the FARAPULSE PFA System, including the FARAWAVE and FARAPOINT PFA Catheters.
To use programmed ventricular stimulation at the time of AF ablation to define the prevalence and mechanism of inducible ventricular tachycardia (VT); pace-mapping to define the site of origin of ventricular arrhythmias; and voltage mapping to define low voltage scar substrate in the basal LV in patients with pathogenic TTN variants compared to genotype-negative controls.
The goal of the study is to learn how a weight loss medication called semaglutide, which is used to treat obesity, in addition to standard AF treatment might affect AF, atrial fibrillation severity, and whether it changes the risk of atrial fibrillation recurring after standard AF treatments.
