Trial summary

Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation (POAF) is one of the most common complications following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) occurring to 20% - 40% of patients. It is associated with prolonged hospitalization, increased hospital costs, increased complications and mortality rate. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Effect of Genetic Polymorphism on the Occurrence of Post-Operative Atrial Fibrillation After Coronory Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) Surgery in Egyptian Patients Receiving Beta Blockers

Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation (POAF) is one of the most common complications following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) occurring to 20% - 40% of patients. It is associated with prolonged hospitalization, increased hospital costs, increased complications and mortality rate.

Despite the use of Beta Blockers, approximately 20% of patients develop atrial fibrillation following CABG surgery, suggesting a role for polymorphism in the genes The aim of the present study is to determine the minor allele frequency of some of the genes that affect the beta blockers' response and to determine the association between polymorphism in these genes and the occurrence of postoperative atrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass grafting in Egyptian patients receiving perioperative beta blockers.

    perioperative beta blockers

Study groups in NCT03871647
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
POAF groupPatients who will experience AF at any time during the first six days after the operation.
Receives: Drug: Beta blocker
Non POAF groupPatients with a sinus rhythm during the first six days after the operation.
Receives: Drug: Beta blocker

What is being measured

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

  1. Occurrence of Atrial fibrillation

    Atrial fibrillation based on postoperative electrocardiogram. AF diagnostic criteria will include absence of discrete P waves, the RR intervals follow unrepetitive form and the ranges of ventricular rate usually between 90 and 170 beats/min.

    Measured: within 6 days after the operation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coronary Bypass Graft Surgery and Atrial Fibrillation, run by Ain Shams University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 4 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 9 Nov 2021. 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 Egypt. 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?

Occurrence of Atrial fibrillation (time frame: within 6 days after the operation). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03871647, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 9 Nov 2021.
