ClinicalTrials.gov · COMPLETED, 2014

253 participants

Abstract

The purpose of this exploratory study is to evaluate the safety of rivaroxaban and uninterrupted vitamin K antagonist (VKA) in adult participants with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) who undergo catheter ablation as measured by post-procedure major bleeding events.

Conditions: Atrial Fibrillation.

Primary outcome: Number of Participants With Incidence of Post-Procedure Major Bleeding Events.

Enrollment: 253 participants.

How strong is the evidence?

Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design. Reported size: 253 participants or records.
