43 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The purpose of this study is to establish a benchmark for rate of prescription of oral anticoagulants (OA) in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) seen in an ambulatory care setting, based on independent medical assessment of clinical data and physician and patient surveys. The study will also assess reasons for not prescribing OA to prevent thromboembolic complications in patients with NVAF seen in ambulatory care, and patients' perspectives of non-use of OA for treatment of NVAF.
The purpose of this study is to compare edoxaban to warfarin (with enoxaparin, if needed). It will see if edoxaban prevents stroke and other blood clotting problems as well and as safely as warfarin. People with atrial fibrillation (irregular heartbeat) might be able to join. Their doctors must plan to use shock to make their hearts beat normally. About 2200 people from different countries will join. They will have an equal chance of receiving either treatment. They are anticipated to be in the study for around 82 days. Tests will include physicals and finger-pricks. Participants will provide blood and urine samples.
Imaging Real Time within the Left atrial chamber Enhances safety and efficacy of Radiofrequency Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation
A study for patients with abnormal heart rhythm (atrial fibrillation) who need to undergo cardioversion (procedure to restore normal heart rhythm). The study will compare patients assigned randomly (like flipping a coin) to either Rivaroxaban or vitamin K antagonist (VKA). The study will measure common medical outcomes for this type of patient such as bleeding and stroke.
WATCH-TMVR (Watchman for Patients with Atrial Fibrillation Undergoing Transcatheter Mitral Valve) Clinical Trial have the main objective to assess the feasibility of combining clinically indicated MitraClip TMVR and Watchman LAAO in one setting.Mayo Clinic will be the data coordinating center for this trial, which will include up to 3 sites.
The overall goal of this study was to evaluate the comparative safety and effectiveness of rivaroxaban vs. vitamin K antagonist (VKA) for stroke prevention in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) across risk profiles and comorbidities that reflect everyday clinical practice. The primary objective in this study was to evaluate the combined end point of stroke or systemic embolism (SSE), and major bleeding in NVAF patients treated with rivaroxaban vs. VKA.
This trial is designed to provide data about feasibility and safety of short-term treatment with the low-molecular-weight heparin certoparin in patients with persistent nonvalvular atrial fibrillation
The primary objective is to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the implantation of the LAmbre PlusTM device in patients with large or irregularly shaped appendages with non-valvular atrial fibrillation who are at increased risk for stroke and systemic embolism compared to oral anticoagulation (OAC).
The researchers are observing subject and clinician interaction in order to develop future education materials that will help patients and clinicians discuss atrial fibrillation and options to treat it.
This is an early feasibility study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Laminar Left Atrial Appendage Closure System to treat patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation that cannot take, or a have a reason to seek an alternative, to anticoagulant medications.
In people with type 2 diabetes, the body does not make enough of a hormone called insulin or does not use insulin well. This results in high blood sugar levels. People with diabetes are more likely to have non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) compared to people who do not have diabetes. Having both NVAF and diabetes can increase the chances of developing other serious health conditions, like blood clots and strokes. People with NVAF may receive treatments to help lower the risk of blood clots. This can then help to lower the risk of having a stroke. Two of these treatments are rivaroxaban and warfarin. In this study, the researchers will look at how well rivaroxaban works and how safe it is compared to warfarin in routine clinical practice. The study will include men and women who are at least age 18 and who have NVAF and type 2 diabetes. The researchers in this study will use the participants' health information from an electronic database.

This is a single arm, open label, single site study assessing the feasibility of post-procedural edoxaban therapy in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients after clinically indicated WATCHMAN left atrial appendage (LAA) closure.
The primary objectives of this study are to compare the risk of major bleeding and stroke/systemic embolism (SE) events among oral anticoagulant (OAC)-naïve non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) patients initiating OAC warfarin or apixaban or dabigatran or rivaroxaban treatment.
Patients will be screened at Intermountain Medical Center and at Intermountain-affiliated anticoagulation clinics in the Salt Lake City region. Patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation will be considered for study. After written informed consent is obtained, subjects who meet eligibility criteria will be randomized 1:1 to 2 treatment arms: Group 1: Dabigatran etexilate (150 mg BID if CrCL \> 30 mL/min, or 75 mg BID if CrCL \> 15 to 30 mL/min or per USPI; and Group 2: Warfarin (Dose-adjusted (INR 2.0 - 3.0). Assessment of kidney function every 6 months will be done for Group 1. Standard warfarin follow-up and education, based upon system criteria, will be done for Group 2. All subjects will be followed for 24 months, and will be assessed at 1-week, then 3-, 6-, 12-, 18- and 24-months post-anticoagulation visits as well as other visits deem necessary for clinical care. All subjects will undergo protocol-specified laboratory tests and will complete 6 standard, validated questionnaires at each follow-up visit following the week 1 visit, except at the 3-month visit when only one questionnaire will be administered. To determine brain volume and characteristic changes representative of micro-bleeding, the first 10 subjects in each treatment group who are willing and able to undergo the procedure will participate in a MRI sub-study. The cranial MRI will be done at baseline and at 24-months post-anticoagulation on this sub-group.

The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and effectiveness of Laminar Left Atrial Appendage Closure (LAAC) device as compared to the commercially available LAAC devices in participants with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) to reduce the risk of stroke (blocked blood vessel or bleeding in brain) and systemic embolism (blockage in a blood vessel harming vital organs).
An evaluation of the safety and performance of the Conformal Left Atrial Appendage Seal for Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion
There is a need to determine actual compliance of direct oral anticoagulants and how to improve this to reduce risk of stroke in patients with atrial fibrillation. Mobile health tools have been implemented world-wide in various patient populations as means of reducing cardiovascular risk and improving disease management. Results of these interventions have been mixed with some interventions demonstrating significant improvement while others demonstrated no difference between the intervention group and the control group. More importantly, these studies indicate that implementation of mobile health tools is feasible in various patient populations and it may just be a matter of finding the correct intervention for a given disease state. The aim of this study is to increase awareness of atrial fibrillation as a means of improving compliance with anticoagulant medication.
