Primary Objective: to compare the atrial contractility by means of echocardiography between patients receiving flecainide and vernakalant i.v. after conversion to sinus rhythmSecondary Objective(s): 2a. To compare the conversion rate of AF between…
The primary objective of this study is to validate that the reduced system dose setting with Xres4 translate into an overall procedure dose reduction. Procedure dose will be determined by the cumulative dose area product (DAP) value and the…
Demonstrate that the remote management system (Carelink, study group) reduces the time from device detected event onset to clinicaldecision for arrhythmias, cardiovascular disease progression,and system issues compared to patients receiving only in-…
The primary objective is to assess whether management of atrial fibrillation (AF) as well as the early optimization of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) via Home Monitoring decreases mortality and morbidity compared to conventional treatment.
To construct an optimal diagnostic protocol enabling general practitioners to distinguish between dizzy elderly patients who need treatment, dizzy elderly patients who need further diagnostics and dizzy elderly patients who need no further…
To assess the effectiveness of pacing therapy for preventing syncope recurrence inpatients with a high probability of neurally-mediated syncope different from carotid sinus syndrome.
The study is intended to (1) confirm the reduced x-ray shadow of the MicroTEE (S8-3t) probe, and to asses whether this results in a more delayed first pull back or a reduction in the number of pull backs or not; and (2) to evaluate the feasibility…
Mobile phones in cryptogenic strOke patients Bringing sIngle Lead ECGs to detect Atrial Fibrillation
The main objective of this study is to compare the incidence of detected AF in cryptogenic stroke patients by the AliveCor with the incidence of detected AF by a 7-Day Holter ECG.
Primary Objective: To show that an integrated chronic care program in a specialized AF clinic reduces cardiovascular hospitalizations and mortality.Secondary Objective(s): 1) To demonstrate the benefits of an integrated chronic care program in terms…
We aim to i) characterize flow patterns and ii) assess energetic properties in the LV of patients with LBBB (with and without heart failure) and iii) compare findings with those in healthy volunteers.
Main objective is to compare the incidence of subclavian vein thromboses after TLE by manual traction alone versus TLE with use of the mechanical rotational dilator sheath in case of fibrous adhesions hampering extraction by manual traction alone.…
The primary objective of this study is to compare prospectively, in a randomized fashion, the sensitivity and specificity of the conventional versus a short stimulation protocol for induction of sustained monomorphic VT in patients with NICM.
To assess whether atrial flow patterns during sinus rhythm in patients with atrial fibrillation differ from healthy controls with sinus rhythm.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the reliability of the Ablacon Electrographic Flow (EGF) algorithm technology (Ablamap® Software) to identify AF sources and guide ablation therapy in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation.
Main objectiveTo identify and describe the electrophysiological substrate and triggers in patients with (an increased risk of) VTAs using ECGI, in order to improve understanding of arrhythmic mechanisms and use these for arrhythmia risk…
Primary Objective: • To contrast Coherent Mapping quality (electrograms per map) and noise assessment using Octaray (with TRUEREF technology) versus Pentaray catheter for left and right atrium.Secondary Objective(s): • To contrast the Coherent…
The primary objective of this study is to detect HRV patterns which are related to cardiovasculair disease such as permanent atrial fibrillation or (congestive) heart failure using a wearable fitness tracker.
To examine the efficacy of targeting atrial fibrotic tissue during an ablation procedure in treating persistent AF.We will also examine the efficacy of the fibrosis-guided ablation on a number of secondary or exploratory outcomes including the…
To elucidate the correlation between proteostasis marker levels in serum and atrial tissue, and initiation and progression of AF in patients.
- Enrolment of a representative cross-section of AF patients in Europe.- Detailed analysis of clinical and relevant parameters (digitalised ECG, cardiac imaging, blood biomarkers) that could be used during clinical practise for the diagnosis of…
