NCT04926142

Brief Summary

This study aims to assess the incidence of atrial fibrillation (AF), documented using data recorded by an implantable Holter monitoring device (Reveal Linq, Medtronic) within 2 years after percutaneous closure of patent foramen ovale for cryptogenic stroke.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Atrial fibrillation

    Occurrence of documented atrial fibrillation (i.e. at least one episode lasting 30 seconds)

    Within 2 months after percutaneous PFO closure

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Atrial fibrillation

    Within 24 months after percutaneous PFO closure

  • Burden of atrial fibrillation

    Within 2 years after percutaneous PFO closure

  • Relation between MR proANP levels and atrial fibrillation

    Within 2 years after percutaneous PFO closure

  • Stroke

    Within 2 years after percutaneous PFO closure

  • Peripheral emboli

    Within 2 years after percutaneous PFO closure

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (1)

Patients planned for percutaneous PFO closure

Patients will undergo implantation of a Holter device (Reveal Linq Medtronic) 2 months prior to percutaneous PFO closure. Devices will be monitored by telemonitoring until the PFO closure procedure, and at 2, 12 and 24 months after the procedure.

Device: Implantation of Holter deviceProcedure: Percutaneous PFO closure

Interventions

Implantation of a Holter device (Reveal Linq, Medtronic) for telemonitoring of cardiac rhythm

Patients planned for percutaneous PFO closure

Patients will undergo percutaneous closure of patent foramen ovale

Patients planned for percutaneous PFO closure

Eligibility Criteria

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Prospective patients who have had cryptogenic stroke (ischemic only) and with patent foramen ovale confirmed by transoesophageal echocardiography, with an indication for percutaneous closure.

You may qualify if:

  • Adult patients (aged \>18 years)
  • with an indication for percutaneous closure of PFO due to cryptogenic stroke, with indication validated by a cardio-neurological team.
  • patients must provide written informed consent
  • patients must be affiliated to a social security regime or be a beneficiary thereof.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients under legal protection
  • Patients not affiliated to any social security regime
