Alcohol reduction app for atrial fibrillation
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests if a smartphone app can help people with atrial fibrillation reduce or stop drinking alcohol. The goal is to see if cutting down on alcohol makes AF symptoms less severe or occur less often.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests whether avoiding alcohol completely for two weeks helps people with AFib have fewer episodes, compared to allowing regulated drinking. You will be randomly assigned to one of the two groups.
This trial tests a mobile education program on a smartphone to help you learn about and manage your atrial fibrillation. If found helpful, it could improve your symptoms and quality of life.
This study looks at how alcohol may affect atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) after your first ablation (a procedure to fix the heartbeat). They'll use a special watch to monitor your heart, so they can see if drinking less improves your outcome.
This study tests a program that uses WeChat messages to help people with atrial fibrillation remember to take their blood-thinner medication. The goal is to see if reminding people to think about future benefits (things they look forward to) improves how regularly they take their medicine.
This study tests whether a program of exercise and healthy eating changes can reduce how often atrial fibrillation (AFib) happens and help you lose weight. It may be a good fit if you are overweight, have AFib, and are ready to make lifestyle changes.
This study tests whether a smartphone app (FibriCheck) can accurately track heart rhythm recovery after a cardioversion procedure. If you join, you will use the app at home to measure your heart rhythm, which may reduce the need for frequent clinic visits.
