NCT05860894

Brief Summary

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common heart rhythm disorder in the intensive care unit (ICU). It can be precipitated by multiple factors but it is unclear whether AF persists after discharge from the ICU, and long term. This study will investigate whether AF recurs up to one year after ICU discharge.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Rate of recurrence of atrial fibrillation

    Any episode of atrial fibrillation, atrial tachycardia or atrial flutter lasting at least 1 minute, as documented on the implantable device recordings

    up to 1 year after ICU discharge

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Burden of atrial fibrillation in absolute value

    up to 2 years after ICU discharge

  • Burden of atrial fibrillation (percentage of time spent in atrial fibrillation)

    up to 2 years after ICU discharge

  • Rate of Stroke

    up to 2 years after ICU discharge

  • Number of participants with Change in treatment

    up to 2 years after ICU discharge

Study Arms (1)

Implantable ECG holter device

EXPERIMENTAL

Adult patients with new onset atrial fibrillation occuring in the ICU will be implanted with an implantable ECG holter device (Biomonitor3, Biotronik) to monitor arrhythmia episodes up to 2 years after ICU discharge.

Device: Implantable ECG holter device (Biomonitor3, Biotronik)

Interventions

Subcutaneous implantation of ECG holder device to monitor ECG

Implantable ECG holter device
