About this study

To detect atrial fibrillation after infection.

Read the detailed description

This study will prospectively recruit patients who are admitted to CUH general medical wards due to an infection or sepsis and develop new/first diagnosed transient AF. In CUH, our previous projects have shown that around 1500 patients are admitted under general medicine each month at least 1 new diagnosis of AF is made each day (30/month)26.

In particular to the cohort that develop sepsis, they may well be frail and elderly where anticoagulation is often not prescribed as a result 27 unless definitive diagnosis of recurrent AF would be made. The CAMS-AF study will closely tie in with an already existing stroke prevention service at CUH (SOS-AF) who are already screening for patient admitted with AF on general medical wards and will therefore be able to identify those with new AF during an episode of sepsis. Potential participants will be approached by the study investigators prior to discharge and if they are in sinus rhythm written consent will be obtained to place a non-invasive wearable cardiac monitor patch for 14-days, to detect any subclinical arrhythmias, particularly AF.

What is being measured

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

  1. Quantify the incidence of early (within 14-days) AF recurrence in patients who are being discharged, following hospitalisation for an infection or sepsis and develop transient AF at CUH.

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Zio 14-day cardiac patch in people with Atrial Fibrillation and Sepsis, run by Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 6 inclusion and 13 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 1 Feb 2022. 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 United Kingdom. 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?

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?

Quantify the incidence of early (within 14-days) AF recurrence in patients who are being discharged, following hospitalisation for an infection or sepsis and develop transient AF at CUH. (time frame: 12 months). 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 1 Feb 2022.
