About this study

The present study aims to investigate whether care improvement in patients after catheter ablation/cardioversion compared with standard care can be realized by using a digital eHealth platform with connected mobile sensors through early detection of atrial fibrillation recurrence and patient empowerment.

Read the detailed description

The main objective of the study is to compare the reliability of detection of atrial fibrillation of 2 measurement methods or protocols in terms of earliest possible detection: (1) digital eHealth platform with tethered 1-lead ECGs vs (2) standard-of-care long-term ECG. In addition, the quality of the acquired ECGs with both protocols will be compared by physician reporting based on the number of false positive abnormal findings as well as possible effects of using different mobile 1-lead ECGs.

Secondary goals are the collection of data on patient adherence (e.g., reliability of performing recommended actions such as measuring ECGs, blood pressure and body weight, and taking medications), on the course of the disease, and on the use of the health care system.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • iATROSDevice

    The digital eHealth platform of iATROS in combination with a wearable will be used independently by the subjects of the study. In particular, the reminder function is used to remind patients to record their ECGs, take medication and perform other tasks they may have created themselves, or to use other iATROS functions, such as teleconsultation or remote medical data reporting. Furthermore, the designed training program for atrial fibrillation patients teaches them how to deal with their own disease.

    If unhealthy or dangerous vital signs are detected during the use of these medical devices over a longer period of time, the patient receives feedback through the application for medical presentation. This includes the detection of atrial fibrillation recurrences.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Digital eHealth platform with connected mobile 1-lead ECGs + Standard of CareOtherPatients will be fitted with a 1-channel ECG monitor after inclusion in the study and discharged to post ablation care. Here, ECGs are recorded regularly until the occurrence of an arrhythmic event. After the occurrence of an event, a discussion with the investigator will be performed. Interim medical contacts will be limited to the agreed-upon follow-up appointments for the long-term ECGs and other appointments routinely scheduled in the patient's care according to the Standard of Care. long-term ECGs at defined time points
Receives: Device: iATROS

What is being measured

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

  1. Superiority of the iATROS platform as compared to the standard of care

    Assessment of atrial fibrillation recurrences and attribution to detection system.

    Clinically relevant superiority of one system over the other is defined at an allocation of ≥75% of all arrhythmic events to either system.

    Measured: 12 months to a maximum of 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing iATROS in people with Cardiovascular Diseases and Atrial Fibrillation, run by iATROS GmbH at 3 sites in Germany.

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 14 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 21 Apr 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Germany. 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 Paul Weyh (+49 176 856 23 142, paul.weyh@i-atros.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Superiority of the iATROS platform as compared to the standard of care (time frame: 12 months to a maximum of 24 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 21 Apr 2023.
