App-based education to help use apixaban for atrial fibrillation
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests whether a mobile app can help people with atrial fibrillation learn more about their blood thinner, apixaban (Elxaban), and use it correctly. Participants use the app to get education and track their medication.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests whether apixaban, a blood thinner, works well for people with atrial fibrillation who also have heart or circulation conditions. It uses a smartphone app to help track your treatment.
This study tests whether a smartphone app can help people recover after a new type of heart ablation called pulse field ablation for atrial fibrillation. It aims to see if the app improves follow-up care and quality of life.
This study tests a 'pill-in-the-pocket' approach for blood thinners after a catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation. Instead of taking a daily blood thinner, you may only take it when needed, which could reduce the risk of bleeding while still preventing strokes.
This study compares two blood-thinning medicines, edoxaban and apixaban, to see which one is better at preventing strokes and bleeding in people who have both atrial fibrillation and coronary artery disease. If you're eligible, you may receive one of these standard treatments, and the trial could help find the safer option.
This trial tests apixaban (a blood thinner) to prevent stroke in people with atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter who have very poor kidney function or are on dialysis. If you qualify, you may help researchers find a safer way to lower stroke risk for this higher-risk group.
This trial tests how well patients with atrial fibrillation take their apixaban medication and whether it is safe. It aims to see if using apixaban for the first time works well without causing bleeding problems.
