Point-of-Care Ultrasound in Predicting Adverse Outcomes in Emergency Department Patients With Acute Pulmonary Embolism
This study is an observational, prospective study examining the role point-of-care echocardiography of predicting short term adverse outcomes in emergency department patients with acute pulmonary embolism. The primary objective is to assess the diagnostic performance of ultrasound-guided measures of right ventricular dilation (RVD) and strain in predicting clinical outcomes in …

Systematic Evaluation of Ablation Techniques for Non-Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of empirical posterior wall isolation (PWI), left atrial appendage electrical isolation (LAAEI) and coronary sinus isolation (CSI) when compared to pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) alone: PVI alone, PVI + PWI, PVI + PWI + LAAEI, PVI + PWI …

Amplatzer Amulet LAAO vs. NOAC
The objective of this trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Amulet LAA occluder compared to NOAC therapy in patients with non-valvular AF at increased risk for ischemic stroke and who are recommended for long-term NOAC therapy. The clinical investigation is a prospective, randomized, multicenter active control …

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 …

BIO|CONCEPT.ECG-Library
The aim of the study is to collect data from surface ECGs by using Holter ECG recordings from patients with different forms of diagnosed arrhythmias and/or specific ECG characteristics from heart diseases to support the development of new sensing and detection algorithms for implants.

Acute Atrial Fibrillation and Flutter Treated Electively
The AFFELECT -study compares two types of treatment modalities for acute atrial fibrillation or flutter for patients in whom rhythm control is desirable. The main purpose is to observe if these arrhythmias can be safely treated electively (within 5-9 days). All patients are recruited in the emergency department. Patients must …

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 …

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.

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 …
