Intensive Rhythm Monitoring to Decrease Ischemic Stroke and Systemic Embolism - the Find-AF 2 Study

Patients who have suffered a stroke are having an increased risk of having recurrent stroke in the future. This risk of stroke is increased by atrial fibrillation, which often "comes and goes" (called paroxysmal) and hence escapes routine diagnostics. The hypothesis of Find-AF 2 is that enhanced (evaluation in a …

Ablation of Fibrotic Areas in Patients With Persistent Atrial Fibrillation.

Brief summary: The objective of this study is to compare two different ablation strategies in participants with persistent atrial fibrillation and fibrotic areas in the left atrium. The participant will be randomized to pulmonary vein isolation or pulmonary vein isolation plus ablation of fibrotic areas.

2-Hydroxybenzylamine (2-HOBA) to Prevent Early Recurrence of Atrial Fibrillation After Catheter-based Ablation

The proposed studies will test this hypothesis by randomizing patients with AF to 2-HOBA or placebo 7 days prior to AF ablation to allow 2-HOBA to reach steady-state levels. We hypothesize that tissue injury from AF ablation causes a large release of ROS that react with lipids to generate IsoLGs …

Cryoballoon Pulmonary Vein Isolation for Atrial Fibrillation With Heart Failure

The combination of atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure (HF) is common and implies a poor prognosis. Pulmonary vein isolation is an established method for the treatment of symptomatic AF in patients with normal heart function and has been shown to be more effective than drug therapy. Recently, radiofrequency ablation …

Left Atrial Posterior Wall Additional Isolation for Persistent Atrial Fibrillation Trial

The purpose for this study is to determine whether left posterior wall isolation (PWI) in addition to pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) is effective as ablation strategy for persistent atrial fibrillation (AF).
