The Comparison With Clinical Impacts on Functional Capacity and Symptom Improvement According to the Rhythm Control in Patients With Heart Failure and Recent Onset Atrial Fibrillation

Not Applicable

• Conditions: Heart Failure; Recent Onset Atrial Fibrillation

• Registration Number: NCT02321085
• Lead Sponsor: Yonsei University

Brief Summary

Prospective randomized (rhythm control or rate control in heart failure patients with new onset atrial fibrillation) Objective of study 1. To analyze long term outcome of patients with heart failure with new onset atrial fibrillation according to the rhythm control 2. To analyze remodeling of atrium and ventricle by the new onset AF in heart failure patients 3. To analyze the change of LV function and functional capacity according to the rhythm in patients with HF and new onset AF

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
improvement of left ventricular function according to the rhythm control in patient with heart failure and new onset atrial fibrillation	1 year	ejection fraction change (echocardiography)
functional capacity according to the rhythm control in patient with heart failure and new onset atrial fibrillation	1 year	peak VO2 (cardio pulmonary test ; CPX)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
remodeling of atrium by the new onset AF in heart failure patients The change of LV function and functional capacity according to the rhythm in patients with HF and new onset AF	1 years late	Echo cardiography (LV ejection fraction, LV wall thickness, LV mass index, LA dimension, LA appendage velocity, E/E'), EKG, 24 hours Holter recording
remodeling of ventricle by the new onset AF in heart failure patients The change of LV function and functional capacity according to the rhythm in patients with HF and new onset AF	1 years late	Echo cardiography (LV ejection fraction, LV wall thickness, LV mass index, LA dimension, LA appendage velocity, E/E'), EKG, 24 hours Holter recording
