About this study

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is type of arrhythmia characterized by an irregular and often rapid heartbeats, it has strong associations with other cardiovascular diseases, such as heart failure, coronary artery disease (CAD), valvular heart disease, diabetes mellitus, thyrotoxicosis and hypertension.

Atrial fibrillation is the most frequent cardiac arrhythmia. It has been estimated that 6-12 million people worldwide will suffer this condition in the US by 2050 and 17.9 million people in Europe by 2060. Atrial fibrillation is a major risk factor for ischemic stroke and provokes important economic burden along with significant morbidity and mortality .

(AF) is arrhythmia with the potential to cause thromboembolism. Studies suggest that AF increases the risk of stroke five-folds. Stroke prevention is central to the management of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), and effective stroke prevention requires oral anticoagulation (OAC). Either a vitamin K antagonist (VKA; e.g. warfarin) or a non-VKA oral anticoagulant (NOAC) .

It's essential reach the balance between prevention of thromboembolic as well as bleeding events during the anticoagulant use.

Being tested
Warfarin

What participants receive

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

  • WarfarinDrug

    Also called apixaban, Rivarospire

    Patients receiving oral anticoagulants will be followed up for 6 months to detect occurrence of any major bleeding events include (spontaneous epistaxis , spontaneous bleeding per gums , hematemesis , bleeding per rectum , intracranial hemorrhage and internal hemorrhage ). Then, incidence of bleeding events using both (HAS-BLED) \& (ORBIT) SCORES will be calculated and compared for all cases .

What is being measured

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

  1. incidence of bleeding events using both (HAS-BLED) & (ORBIT) SCORES

Then, incidence of bleeding events using both (HAS-BLED) \& (ORBIT) SCORES will be calculated and compared for all cases .

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Patients With Atrial Fibrillation Receiving Oral Anticoagulants, run by Sohag University.

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 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Aug 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 Yasmeen M Al-anwer, Resident (01152631299, yassminmohamed@med.sohag.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

incidence of bleeding events using both (HAS-BLED) & (ORBIT) SCORES (time frame: 6 months). 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 NCT05975320, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 3 Aug 2023.
