简要总结
Propafenone is a currently used medicine to treat atrial fibrillation and is a mixture of two compounds, (R)-propafenone and (S)-propafenone. In this study, the investigators will randomize participants to (R)-propafenone, (S)-propafenone, or placebo.
详细描述
Atrial fibrillation is a common cardiac arrhythmia that needs development of more effective medications. Propafenone is a medicine currently used to treat atrial fibrillation and is a mixture of two compounds, (R)-propafenone and (S)-propafenone. The investigators have discovered that purified (R)-propafenone may be more effective than (S)-propafenone for treatment of atrial fibrillation, and that (S)-propafenone reduces the efficacy of (R)-propafenone when administered as a mixture. This study will compare the ability of (R)-propafenone, (S)-propafenone, and placebo to suppress the induction of atrial fibrillation in participants undergoing an atrial fibrillation ablation procedure.

结局指标
主要结局
Number of Participants With Successful Induction of 30 Seconds of Atrial Fibrillation/Atrial Flutter
时间窗: Twenty minutes post-dosage to end of induction protocol (approximately 10 minutes)
A rapid atrial pacing protocol was used to attempt to induce atrial fibrillation/atrial flutter. Twenty minutes after start of the study drug, participants underwent placement of a decapolar coronary sinus catheter. Pacing was performed from the proximal electrode at 20 milliamps and a pulse width of 2 ms. Bursts from the CS proximal electrode were induced to attempt atrial fibrillation.
次要结局
- Number of Participants With Successful Inducibility of Atrial Fibrillation/Atrial Flutter Expressed as an Ordinal Variable Based on Stage of the Induction Protocol(Twenty minutes post-dosage to end of induction protocol (approximately 10 minutes))
- Number of Participants With Successful Induction of 30 Seconds of Atrial Flutter(Twenty minutes post-dosage to end of induction protocol (approximately 10 minutes))
