Acute Cerebrovascular Events in Patients Undergoing Catheter Ablation (CENTRAL)

Acute Cerebrovascular Events in Patients Undergoing Catheter Ablation (CENTRAL): an Investigator-initiated, Multicenter Real-world Study

This study aims to evaluate the incidence, clinical characteristics, and short-term prognosis of acute cerebrovascular events occurring in-hospital in patients with arrhythmias following catheter ablation. The goal is to provide evidence supporting the improvement of patient quality of life and reduction of in-hospital acute cerebrovascular complications in patients with post-ablation arrhythmias. This will also contribute to the evidence-based clinical management of such patients.

Detailed Description

With the steady development of catheter ablation, it has gradually become the main treatment of various arrhythmias. Antithrombotic and anticoagulant therapy after catheter ablation determines the occurrence of perioperative bleeding and ischemic events. However, the incidence, characteristics and short-term prognosis of secondary acute cerebrovascular events in patients with arrhythmia after catheter ablation have not been studied. Methods: This study was intended to retrospectively collect and analyze the case data and auxiliary examination results of patients with arrhythmia who underwent catheter ablation. To evaluate the incidence, clinical features and short-term prognosis of secondary acute ischemic and hemorrhagic cerebrovascular events in patients with arrhythmia after catheter ablation. In order to improve the quality of life of patients, reduce the secondary acute cerebrovascular complications in the hospital in patients with arrhythmia after catheter ablation, to provide evidence for promoting the clinical management of such patients, and to provide help for the maximum degree of prevention and control risk.

  2. Ischemic stroke met the diagnostic criteria of the 2018 edition of the Chinese Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Acute Ischemic Stroke, and was confirmed by cranial CT/MRI scan.
Transient ischemic attack group
  1. Transient ischemic attack secondary to patients receiving catheter ablation.
  2. Ischemic stroke met the diagnostic criteria of the 2018 edition of the Chinese Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Acute Ischemic Stroke, and was confirmed negative of new onset of infarction by cranial CT/MRI scan.
Cerebral hemorrhage group
  1. Cerebral hemorrhage secondary to patients receiving catheter ablation.
  2. Cerebral hemorrhage met the diagnostic criteria of the 2021 Chinese Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Treatment of cerebral hemorrhage and was confirmed by head CT/MRI.
Contral group
