Trial summary

Heart failure and stroke are the two major complication of atrial fibrillation. Current treatment for atrial fibrillation is so focused to stroke prevention, but the risk assessment for heart failure is less highlighted. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Exercise Performance in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation: Usefulness of Cardiopulmonary Exercise Test

Heart failure and stroke are the two major complication of atrial fibrillation. Current treatment for atrial fibrillation is so focused to stroke prevention, but the risk assessment for heart failure is less highlighted. The most of patients with atrial fibrillation have cardiac functional limitation of variable degree. We hypothesize that the exercise test would reveal the subclinical cardiac dysfunction, and might be helpful to classify the patients with atrial fibrillation according to their exercise capacity real cardiac function.

    Measured: At baseline

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Composite cardiovascular events (all death, admission of heart failure, stroke/thromboembolism)

    Measured: Up to 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Atrial Fibrillation, run by Incheon St.Mary's Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Sep 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Exercise response patterns of heart rate and oxygen uptake (time frame: At baseline). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 Sep 2013.
