Trial summary

Surgical occlusion of the left atrial appendage (LAAO) is sometimes performed during the cardiac surgery to reduce long-term risk of stroke.A previous study found that LAAO may be associated with increased risk of postoperative atrial fibrillation.New-onset atrial fibrillation (NOAF) after coronary artery bypass graft… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Fuwai Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Science

Surgical occlusion of the left atrial appendage (LAAO) is sometimes performed during the cardiac surgery to reduce long-term risk of stroke.A previous study found that LAAO may be associated with increased risk of postoperative atrial fibrillation.New-onset atrial fibrillation (NOAF) after coronary artery bypass graft is related to an increased short-term and long term risk of stroke and mortality.Marshall ligament amputation may reduce the occurence of atrial fibrillation. However, little is known whether this approach is justified during the coronary artery bypass graft.Therefore, this study aimed to investigate whether LAAO and Marshall ligament amputation during off-pump coronary artery bypass was associated with reduced risks of postoperative new-onset atrial fibrillation and stroke.

What is being measured

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

  1. postoperative new-onset atrial fibrillation

    Postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF), defined as new-onset atrial fibrillation (AF) in the immediate period after surgery, is the most important type of secondary AF.

    Measured: 7 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. stroke

    Stroke is caused by a disruption in the flow of blood to part of the brain either because of occlusion of a blood vessel in the case of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) or the rupture of a blood vessel causing bleeding in or around the brain: intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH)or subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH)。

    Measured: 1 months,3 months, 1years, 3years, 5years.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Left Atrial Appendage Resection and Marshall Ligament Amputation in people with Coronary Artery Disease and Stroke, run by China National Center for Cardiovascular Diseases at 1 site in China.

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 1 inclusion and 6 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Jan 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 China. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Hengchao Wu, doctor (010-88322355, whcwuhengchao@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

postoperative new-onset atrial fibrillation (time frame: 7 days). 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 20 Jan 2021.
