About this study

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a rhythmic cardiac activity disorder disturbing hemodynamic blood flow. It is a public health problem with 600,000 to 1 million people involved in France which 2/3 are aged over 75 years. a FA untreated exposes the patient to a significant risk of embolism responsible for a rate stroke (stroke) ischemic estimated at 85%. The anticoagulant standard treatment helps prevent the occurrence of this complication.

However, oral anticoagulation also exposes patients to an increased risk of bleeding. The bleeding risk can be assessed using scales: several being proposed (HEMORR2HAGES, HAS-BLED, ATRIA and scores Shireman and Charlson ...).

moreover, in geriatric hospital care, every patient has a "standardized geriatric assessment" to assess and quantify functional capacity, autonomy, cognitive abilities, nutritional status, psychological state and its environment social.

Thus, the objective of the investigators study was to determine the frequency of each item of each bleeding risk assessment score and geriatric assessment in patients 80 and older hospitalized geriatric ward in the department and with anticoagulant.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Atrial Fibrillation and Gerontology, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Saint Etienne at 5 sites in France.

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 3 inclusion and 3 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Jan 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in France. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

scale : HEMORR2HAGES (time frame: at baseline). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. 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 23 Jan 2017.
