NCT02958839

Brief Summary

To investigate whether fibroblast growth factor 23 can be used to predict recurrence after catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation and to provide an objective basis for the clinical selection of the optimal patients for catheter ablation.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Incidence of the recurrence of atrial fibrillation

    The recurrence of atrial fibrillation is considered to be any episode of AF/AFL/AT after a blank period of 3 months after the procedure of catheter ablation

    after 3 months from the procedure of catheter ablation

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Plasma fibroblast growth factor 23 levels

    after 3 months from the procedure of catheter ablation

  • CHA2DS2-VASc score

    after 3 months from the procedure of catheter ablation

  • Cardiac CT evaluation

    after 3 months from the procedure of catheter ablation

Study Arms (2)

Recurrence Group

In the case control trial, patients who have any episode of atrial fibrillation/atrial flutter/atrial tachycardia after a blanking period of 3 months from the catheter ablation procedure will be assign to the recurrence group

Procedure: Catheter ablation

Non-recurrence Group

In the case control trial, patients who do not have any episode of atrial fibrillation/atrial flutter/atrial tachycardia after a blanking period of 3 months from the catheter ablation procedure will be assign to the recurrence group

Procedure: Catheter ablation

Interventions

Patients with persistent or paroxysmal atrial fibrillation will go through catheter ablation

Non-recurrence GroupRecurrence Group

Sampling MethodProbability Sample
Study Population

This research is going to recruit 200 consecutive patients with a history of atrial fibrillation for 180-360 days who intend to undergo catheter ablation. Atrial fibrillation is diagnosed according to guidelines; Patients with structural heart disease; renal or hepatic impairment; neoplastic disorders; atrial fibrillation precipitated by other diseases such as thyrotoxicosis; or diabetes will be excluded.

You may qualify if:

  • Have a history of atrial fibrillation for 180 to 360 days
  • Provide written informed consent, having understood the benefits and risks of participation in the trial

You may not qualify if:

  • Significant structural heart disease (including symptomatic coronary heart disease; prosthetic mitral or tricuspid valve; congenital heart disease where abnormality or its correction prohibits or increases the risk of ablation)
  • Atrial Fibrillation precipitated by other diseases (such as thyrotoxicosis)
  • Severe dysfunction of liver or kidney
  • Diabetes
  • Malignant tumor
  • Inability or refusal to provide written informed consent for the study

Biospecimen

Retention: SAMPLES WITH DNA

Blood samples will be obtained by a peripheral venipuncture and will be centrifuged at 3,200 \*g for 10 minutes at approximately 4℃ within an hour of collection. The serum will be separated into aliquots and stored at -80℃ until personnel blinded to the patients' clinical information performed the analysis.
