Sponsor: Samsung Medical Center
Conditions: Atrial Fibrillation, SGLT2 Inhibitor, DC Cardioversion
Interventions: SGLT2 inhibitors (Dapagliflozin and Empagliflozin)
Countries: South Korea
SGLT2 inhibitors improve outcomes in heart failure across the ejection fraction spectrum, but their effect on maintenance of sinus rhythm after rhythm-control therapy is largely unknown. This prospective, single-center, open-label randomized controlled trial evaluates whether an SGLT2 inhibitor started after successful electrical cardioversion reduces recurrence of atrial tachyarrhythmia at 1 month in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. 200 patients will be randomized 1:1 to receive an SGLT2 inhibitor or no SGLT2 inhibitor.
Sex: ALL
Age: 19 Years to —
Healthy volunteers: No
