Participation Criteria
Eligibility Criteria
Ages Eligible for Study
Accepts Healthy Volunteers
Genders Eligible for Study
Description
Inclusion criteria:
- Written informed consent
- Patients undergoing circumferential antral PV ablation for non-valvular (mitral regurgitation less than moderate- severe insufficiency; no relevant mitral stenosis with a mean pressure gradient >5mmHg) symptomatic, paroxysmal AF or persistent AF (duration < 12 months) with risk factors resulting in a CHA2DS2VASc score ≥2, using a cooled tip RF-, laser- or cryo-balloon-catheter.
- CHA2DS2VASc score ≥2
Randomization criteria:
- Sinus rhythm (as assessed by 72h Holter ECG) following the 3 months blanking and 3 months observation period after first or second pulmo-nary vein ablation procedure
- No clinical evidence of recurrent AF after completing 3 months blanking and 3 months observation period as assessed by symptoms
- No other relevant contraindication for OAC assessed by randomization MRI of the brain
Exclusion criteria:
- Severe mental retardation or psychiatrical disorder resulting in incapabil-ity to adequately understand nature, significance, implications and risks of study parcipitation (i.e. bipolar disorders, severe depression, suicidal tendencies, among others) as judged by the local physician, ongoing drug or alcohol addiction (> 8 drinks/week)
- Pregnancy /breast feeding
- Severely impaired renal function, GFR < 30 ml/min
- Impaired liver function (ALT/AST transaminase count 3fold higher than normal values) or liver disease with reduced life expectancy <1 year
- Valvular AF (moderate- severe mitral insufficiency; relevant mitral steno-sis with a mean pressure gradient >5mmHg)
- Long standing persistent (>12 months) and permanent AF
- NSTEMI/STEMI/implantated drug eluting stent with indication for dual antiplatelet therapy within 12 months before enrolment
- History of complex left atrial ablation procedures. One previous PVI al-lowed.
- Clinical indication for extended left atrial ablation procedures (CFAE-, rotor-ablation)
- History or presence of left atrial or ventricular thrombus
- History of stroke / TIA independent from etiology
- Acute major bleedings
- Lesion or condition, if considered a significant risk factor for major bleeding. This may include current or recent gastrointestinal ulceration, presence of malignant neoplasms at high risk of bleeding, recent brain or spinal injury, recent brain, spinal or ophthalmic surgery, recent intracranial haemorrhage, known or suspected oesophageal varices, arteriovenous malformations, vascular aneurysms or major intraspinal or intracerebral vascular abnormalities
- Need for concomitant anitcoagulation in addition to dabigatran
- History of previous surgery resulting in contraindication for OAC
- History of malignoma resulting in contraindication for OAC
- Mechanical prosthetic heart valve or other indication for permanent OAC
- Contraindication for MRI (i.e. metal implants unsuitable for MRI, wearing of magnetic or metallic objects that cannot be removed from the body (such as body piercing, implanted electrodes, contraceptive coil), inabil-ity to lie on the back for an extended period of time, uncontrollable claustrophobia, hypersensitivity to noise etc.). Pacemaker and ICD-patients may be included at the discretion of the local investigators/radiologists if MRI is warranted
- Hypersensitivity against dabigatran or other ingredients of the medical product
- Concomitant medication with dronedarone, ketoconazole, itraconazole, cyclosporine, tacrolimus or other interacting drugs as specified in the drug information
- Simultaneous participation in any clinical trial involving administration of an investigational medicinal product within 30 days prior to clinical trial beginning
- Females of childbearing potential, who are not using or not willing to use medically reliable methods of contraception for the entire study duration (such as oral, injectable, or implantable contraceptives, or intrauterine contraceptive devices) unless they are surgically sterilized / hysterectomized or there are any other criteria considered sufficiently reliable by the investigator in individual cases
- Conditions which interfere with the study treatment at the discretion of the investigator

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Oral Anticoagulation with Dabigatran
The recommended daily dose of Pradaxa is 300 mg taken as one 150 mg capsule twice daily. For the following patients the recommended daily dose of Pradaxa is 220 mg taken as one 110 mg capsule twice daily:
For the following groups, the daily dose of Pradaxa of 300 mg or 220 mg should be selected based on an individual assessment of the thromboembolic risk and the risk of bleeding:

AF-free patients as assessed by 72h Holter ECG and symptoms wil be random-izedals to the following two interventional arms:
|
No Intervention: No Oral Anticoagulation
