The Modified "Pills-in-the-Pocket" Strategy -The Combined Effect of Amiodarone, Bisoprolol and Digoxin in the Treatment of Recurrent Atrial Arrhythmia for Non-Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation After Catheter Ablation: A Multicenter, Prospective, Randomized, Open-Label, Blinded Endpoint Clinical Trial

Summary

This is a multicentre, prospective, randomised controlled study of 328 patients with non-paroxysmal AF (within 5 years of first diagnosis of AF) with recurrent atrial arrhythmias after first catheter ablation, randomly divided in a 1:1 ratio into a study group treated with triple AADs (amiodarone + bisoprolol + digoxin) and a control group treated with conventional AADs (amiodarone + bisoprolol + digoxin). The study group was treated with triple AADs (amiodarone + bisoprolol) and the control group was treated with conventional AADs (amiodarone + bisoprolol) with the aim of comparing the efficacy and safety of the two groups in terms of reversion of SR, which may provide an effective option of pocket drug reversion for patients with recurrence of SR after AF catheter ablation.

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study tests a modified "pill-in-the-pocket" approach — taking a heart rhythm medication only when a fast, irregular heartbeat (atrial fibrillation) occurs — in people whose irregular heartbeat came back after a catheter ablation procedure. **You may be eligible if...** - You are 18 or older with atrial fibrillation (AF) that returned after a catheter ablation - Your irregular heartbeat episodes last longer than 24 hours and don't stop on their own - You are willing to take a heart rhythm medication when needed **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have had open heart surgery, a mechanical heart valve, or valve replacement - You have an enlarged heart muscle condition (cardiomyopathy) - Your left atrium (a heart chamber) is significantly enlarged - You have a history of thyroid problems - You have severe liver or kidney disease - Your heart pumps less than 40% of blood per beat, or you have severe heart failure symptoms - You have a very slow heart rate or significant heart block - You are currently in another clinical trial Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
