Clinical Impact of SGLT2 Inhibitor After DC Cardioversion in Persistent AF With HFpEF
NCT07776054
Summary
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.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria: * Age ≥19 years * Persistent atrial fibrillation * H2FPEF score ≥6 or HFA-PEFF score ≥5 * Restoration of sinus rhythm after electrical cardioversion Exclusion Criteria: * Previous use of an SGLT2 inhibitor * Intracardiac thrombus on transesophageal echocardiography * Refusal to participate
