About this study

Official title: Multicenter Randomized Clinical Trial PULVAB (Prophylactic Pulmonary Veins Ablation)

To compare prophylactic strategies of atrial fibrillation in patients with CAD and without AF.

Read the detailed description

Prospective, multicenter, randomized trial, intended to compare three prophylactic strategies of atrial fibrillation in patients with coronary artery disease and without history of atrial fibrillation.

The study includes 4 groups of patients:

Group I (conventional CABG)

Group II (CABG + pulmonary veins isolation). Concomitant CABG and epicardial bipolar radiofrequency pulmonary veins isolation.

Group III (CABG+ pulmonary veins isolation + amiodarone). Concomitant CABG and epicardial bipolar radiofrequency pulmonary veins ablation with administration of amiodarone in postoperative periode.

Group IV (CABG+ amiodarone). Conventional CABG with administration of amiodarone in postoperative periode.

Being tested
Conventional CABG, CABG+ PVI, CABG+ PVI+amiodarone, CABG+amiodarone
Keywords
Bipolar radiofrequency ablation, Atrial Fibrillation New Onset, CABG, Coronary artery disease, Postoperative atrial fibrillation
Medical subject headings

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Incidence of atrial fibrillation after CABG

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  2. Major cardiovascular and cerebral events (MACCE), including death, nonfatal myocardial infarction, repeated revascularization using PCI or CABG, transitory ischemic attack (TIA) or stroke.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Sinus rhythm at the time of discharge of the patient from the hospital

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  2. Duration of mechanical ventilation

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  3. Incidence of implantation of the pacemaker

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  4. Volume of intraoperative bleeding

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  5. Time of CBP

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  6. Time clamping of the aorta

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  7. Length of stay in the intensive care unit

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  8. Duration of the hospitalization

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Conventional CABG, CABG+ PVI and CABG+ PVI+amiodarone in people with Arrhythmias, Cardiac and Cardiovascular Diseases, run by National Research Center of Surgery, Russia at 2 sites in Russia.

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 10 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 6 Feb 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Russia. 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?

Contact Amiran Sh. Revishvili (+7 (499) 236-72-90), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of atrial fibrillation after CABG (time frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 year). The study lists 2 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 6 Feb 2020.
