About this trial

Atrial fibrillation is frequently accompanied by tricuspid regurgitation and may contribute to right atrial and tricuspid annular remodeling, leading to progression of tricuspid regurgitation and adverse clinical outcomes. However, whether early rhythm control improves prognosis in patients with atrial fibrillation and tricuspid regurgitation remains unclear. This study will compare early rhythm control with usual care in these patients, using a composite outcome of cardiac death, heart failure admission, stroke, and tricuspid valve surgery.

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

Disqualifiers
