Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to understand temporal changes in clinical features and functions, and the relationship with outcomes of atrial fibrillation (AF). AF is a problem with speed or pattern that the heart beats. It is the most common type of arrythmia. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Temporal Changes in Clinical Characteristics and Functions, and Their Relationship With Outcomes of Atrial Fibrillation: a Retrospective Study Utilizing Data Linkage of a Single Center Patient Data and National Claims Database in Korea

The purpose of this study is to understand temporal changes in clinical features and functions, and the relationship with outcomes of atrial fibrillation (AF). AF is a problem with speed or pattern that the heart beats. It is the most common type of arrythmia. The study will use data linkage of a single center patient data and national claims database in Korea. This study does not include an actual patient enrollment process.

What is being measured

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

  1. Event Rate of Stroke/Systemic embolism (SE)

    National Health Insurance Service(NHIS)

    Claims with the following ICD-10 diagnosis codes as main or all sub-diagnoses whichever came first (i.e., the first occurred event will be used):

    1. Ischemic stroke: G45.9, I63, I69.3
    2. Hemorragic stroke: I60, I61, I62, I69.0, I69.1, I69.2
    3. Systemic embolism: I74
    • Hospitalization and computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) codes (brain CT or MRI for ischemic stroke and hemorrhagic stroke; any CT or MRI for systemic embolism) were also required for identification.

    Measured: Up to 12 months after AF diagnosis or after the start date of relevant atrial fibrillation(AF) treatment

  2. Event Rate of Major bleeding

    Bleeding requiring hospitalization will be identified using hospital claims which had a bleeding diagnosis code as the first occurred ICD-10 code and will be consisted of intracranial hemorrahge (ICH), gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding, and other bleeding. Main and all sub-diagnosis codes will be used. Particularly, hospitalization and brain CT or MRI codes (as described in variable 'stroke or SE') will be needed to identify ICH.

    Measured: Up to 12 months after the AF diagnosis or after the start date of relevant AF treatment

  3. All-Cause Mortality Rates

    Death will be identified from mortality registration data of Statistics Korea linked to NHIS database

    Measured: Up to 12 months after the AF diagnosis or after the start date of relevant AF treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Atrial Fibrillation, run by Pfizer at 1 site in South Korea.

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 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. 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?

Event Rate of Stroke/Systemic embolism (SE) (time frame: Up to 12 months after AF diagnosis or after the start date of relevant atrial fibrillation(AF) treatment). The study lists 3 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 20 Nov 2025.
