Primary outcomes1

Outcomes the sponsor listed as primary.

  1. The primary efficacy clinical endpoint of the trial is assessed at 12 months by a 7 point scale. Only the worst clinical outcome will be retained as the primary efficacy outcome

    Time frame · At 1 year follow-up

    Registry description

    The 7 mutually exclusive outcomes hierarchically ranked from worst to best are: * Arrhythmic death while using anti-arrhythmic drugs (Vaughn-Williams class I or III)\* * AF despite pulmonary vein isolation * AF despite current use of anti-arrhythmic drugs (Vaughn-Williams class I or III) * AF without a pulmonary vein isolation and without the current use of anti-arrhythmic drugs (Vaughn-Williams class I or III) * Sinus rhythm on the 12-lead ECG with the use of a pulmonary vein isolation * Sinus rhythm on the 12-lead ECG with current use of anti-arrhythmic drugs (Vaughn-Williams class I or III) * Sinus rhythm on the 12-lead ECG without the current use of anti-arrhythmic drugs (Vaughn-Williams class I or III) and without a pulmonary vein isolation * When LTFU or death other than anti-arrhythmic death, last known rhythm will be used.

Secondary outcomes(11)
  1. Change in AF related symptoms measured by the modified EHRA classification between the index visit and at 12 months after the index visit.

    Time frame · week 0 and 52

    Registry description

    EHRA: European Heart Rythm Association 1= no symptoms 2a= mild symptoms; Normal dialy activity not affected, symptoms not troublesome to patient 2b= moderate symptoms; Normal daily activity not affected but patient troubled by symptoms 3= severe symptoms; Normal daily activity affected 4= disabling symptoms; Normal daily activity discontinued

  2. Change in quality of life measured by the EQ-5D-5L between the index visit and at 12 months after the index visit.

LEVEL 1: indicating no problem LEVEL 2: indicating slight problems LEVEL 3: indicating moderate problems LEVEL 4: indicating severe problems LEVEL 5: indicating unable to/extreme problems

  3. Number of hospitalizations because of an AF recurrence.

    Time frame · week 0-52

  4. Number of unscheduled hospital visits because of adverse events of AAD.

  6. Number of unscheduled electrical cardioversions.

    Time frame · week 0-52

  7. Number of intravenous chemical cardioversions (using Vaughan-Williams class I drugs).

  8. Total number of unscheduled cardioverions.

    Time frame · week 0-52

  9. Change in waist circumference, measured in cm

    Time frame · week 0 and 52

  10. Change in weight, measured in % and kg
