Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Intervention Arm
Patients randomized to amiodarone treatment
|
Patients will undergo one of the two regimens of amiodarone, based on their ability to tolerate po (per os) intake in the post-operative period: • All patient will receive 1050mg of amiodarone in 100mL of 5% dextrose administered intravenously initiated at the time of anesthesia induction at a rate of 0.73mg/min or 43.75mg/h and continued over 24 hours followed by:
|
Placebo Comparator: Control Arm
Patients randomized to placebo treatment
|
Patients will undergo one of the two schedules or intravenous infusion, based on their ability to tolerate po intake in the post-operative period:

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Capability for enrolment
Time Frame: Upon study completion, 1 year following study initiation
|
Capacity for enrolment will be assessed, in order to determine recruitment potential and an optimal sample size estimated for a full-scale RCT, by measuring the following outcomes: proportion of patients risk stratified and screened, proportion of eligible individuals consenting to involvement in the study, proportion of recruited individuals who are enrolled in the study.
|
Upon study completion, 1 year following study initiation
|
Proportion of patients randomized who receive the intervention
Time Frame: Upon study completion, 1 year following study initiation
|
Feasibility of the randomization process will be evaluated including the proportion of patients randomized who receive the intervention
|
Upon study completion, 1 year following study initiation
|
Knowledge of which patients received intervention and placebo
Time Frame: Upon study completion, 1 year following study initiation
|
Feasibility of blinding of participant, care provider, investigator, and outcomes assessor to the intervention allocation of participants will be evaluated by administering a survey to assess their knowledge of which patients received the intervention and placebo
|
Upon study completion, 1 year following study initiation
|
Intervention delivery
Time Frame: Upon study completion, 1 year following study initiation
|
Intervention delivery will be assessed by determining if protocol adherence rates exceed >90% and recording observational data on the quality of intervention delivery using a data collection sheet
|
Upon study completion, 1 year following study initiation
|
Protocol compliance
Time Frame: Upon study completion, 1 year following study initiation
|
Monitoring of protocol compliance will be measured by the frequency, rate, and rationale of events when study activities diverge from the REB-approved protocol
|
Upon study completion, 1 year following study initiation
|
Adherence to safety protocol
Time Frame: Upon study completion, 1 year following study initiation
|
Monitoring of safety will be assessed by determining the rate and efficiency of reporting adverse events if they occur and monitoring adherence rates to safety and monitoring protocols
|
Upon study completion, 1 year following study initiation
|
Proportion of patients for which data could be abstracted
Time Frame: Upon study completion, 1 year following study initiation
|
Feasibility of data extraction analysis will be evaluated by the proportion of patients for which the required data could be abstracted: medication use, incidence of post-operative atrial fibrillation, post-operative outcomes, etc.
|
Upon study completion, 1 year following study initiation
|
Resources
Time Frame: Upon study completion, 1 year following study initiation
|
Resources required to conduct a future multi-centre PREP-AF trial will be assessed by evaluating the administrative capacity of the POAF research team, including the required number of hours of research assistant time, as well as the feasibility of the designated study budget
|
Upon study completion, 1 year following study initiation
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Incidence of postoperative atrial fibrillation
Time Frame: Within 30 days post-surgery
|
Incidence of postoperative atrial fibrillation, as defined by atrial fibrillation proved by electrocardiogram with an irregular narrow complex tachycardia without p waves
|
Within 30 days post-surgery
|
Severity of postoperative atrial fibrillation
Time Frame: Within 30 days post-surgery
|
Severity of postoperative atrial fibrillation, as classified by the Clavien-Dindo classification schema, defined for thoracic surgery using the published Ottawa Thoracic Morbidity and Mortality system
|
Within 30 days post-surgery
|
Hospital length of stay
Time Frame: Within 30 days post-surgery
|
Hospital length of stay, as defined as the number of days inclusive between the day of surgery, and the day of discharge
|
Within 30 days post-surgery
|
Other postoperative complications
Time Frame: Within 30 days post-surgery
|
Other postoperative complications using the taxonomy of the Ottawa Thoracic Morbidity and Mortality definitions.
All complications are recorded with incidence, date, and severity.
Of note, post-operative mortality is a grade V complication and is recorded along with its cause as well
|
Within 30 days post-surgery
