About this study

Official title: Study on the Significance of Auricular Clip in Prevention and Treatment of Valvular Heart Disease Atrial Thrombosis and the Related Precision Treatment Technique

To evaluate the safety and clinical efficacy of left atrial appendage in the prevention of thrombus in patients with valvular heart disease, to improve the product according to clinical conditions, to achieve clinically accurate treatment, and to establish the heart valve, the usefulness and universality of Warfarin's anticoagulant model were verified by the specimen library

Read the detailed description

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common arrhythmia. The risk of ischemic stroke in AF patients is 4-5 times higher than that in non-af patients, and leads to nearly 20% mortality and nearly 60% disability. Atrial fibrillation is associated with valvular disease and atrial fibrillation in about 30-70% of patients with valvular heart disease. Left atrial thrombus occurs in 15-25% of patients with atrial fibrillation. More than 90% of patients with atrial thrombus is located in the left atrial appendage. In patients with valvular atrial fibrillation, the left atrial appendage is clamped at the same time of valvular surgery to avoid recurrence of atrial thrombus-related stroke. In this clinical trial, the left atrial appendage was used to clamp the prethrombotic site of the heart to prevent stroke and improve the prognosis.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Atrial Fibrillation and Thrombus; Embolism, run by Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang 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 4 inclusion and 6 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Mar 2022. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

Success rate of auricular clip clipping (time frame: 12 months). The study lists 2 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 2 Mar 2022.
