About this study
Official title: Partial Cardiac Denervation to Prevent POAF After CABG: 3 Year Follow-up of pCAD-POAF Randomized Trial
This study will include the subjects who enrolled in pCAD-POAF trial (NCT05009914) to observe clinical outcomes 3 years after surgery.
The primary outcome is the time to first occurrence of a composite of all-cause death, stroke, systemic embolism, myocardial infarction, unplanned cardiac rehospitalization, or post-discharge atrial fibrillation from randomization through 3 years after surgery.
The secondary outcomes are:the individual components of the primary composite outcome; unplanned all-cause rehospitalization; arrhythmias other than atrial fibrillation; premature atrial contraction and premature ventricular contraction burdens; heart rate variability parameters; quality-of-life scores; and other Holter-derived parameters.
Read the detailed description
This study aimed to observe clinical outcomes 3 years after surgery in patients enrolled in pCAD-POAF trial.
After completing the pCAD-POAF trial, investigators would not make any other interventions on enrolled patients. At the 3 year follow-up visit, all subjects will undergo regular laboratory test , electrocardiogram (ECG), ultrasound cardiography (UCG). Besides, coronary computed tomographic angiography(CCTA) will be performed depending on their own willingness. In the meantime, all subjects will be continuously monitored by wearing specific device for the detection of arrhythmias. Data collection will also include the use of medications, medical tests, any documented arrhythmias and the occurrence of clinical events within the 3 years.
In conclusion, this is a extensive follow-up of previous RCT and a non-interventional, observational study.

Assessment of quality of life
Assessed by EQ-5D-5L (EuroQol 5-Dimensions 5-Levels questionnaire, higher score means better outcome) and AFEQT (Atrial-Fibrillation-Effect-on-Quality-of-life-Questionnaire, higher score means better outcome).
