Predicting rapid heart rate in atrial fibrillation
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at heart monitoring data to see if a new method can predict when atrial fibrillation might cause a rapid heart rate within the next 2 hours. If you have had atrial fibrillation and heart monitoring in the hospital, your data might help this research.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 19 years or older.
- You need to have had continuous heart monitoring during a hospital stay.
- You need to have atrial fibrillation, with or without a rapid heart rate.
- You cannot be pregnant or breastfeeding at the time of the monitoring.
- Your heart monitoring data must be good quality, without excessive noise or gaps.
- You cannot have had a very fast heart rate the whole time, regardless of atrial fibrillation.

This study is testing an artificial intelligence (AI) tool that uses a simple single-lead ECG (heart rhythm recording) to predict whether a patient will develop atrial fibrillation (a common heart rhythm problem) within the next 2 hours. The goal is to help doctors detect and treat this condition earlier, potentially preventing complications.
This study looks at how a very fast heart rate from atrial fibrillation might affect the heart muscle. If you are having symptoms from this condition and haven't had a prior heart attack or stent, you may be able to help researchers understand the link and improve care.
This trial tests whether starting treatment early to control your heart's rhythm can help people with a heart device who have short bursts of a fast heartbeat (called atrial high rate episodes) but haven't yet been diagnosed with atrial fibrillation on a standard EKG or Holter monitor.
This trial uses a special long-term heart monitor (one wire) that uses artificial intelligence to find new cases of atrial fibrillation, a type of irregular heartbeat that can increase stroke risk. If you're 60 or older and haven't had AF before, this study could help catch it early.
This study compares different heart rate targets for people with ongoing atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) to find which one improves symptoms and quality of life. It may help you and your doctor choose the best treatment plan.
This trial uses a simple, handheld ECG device (like a small card) to check your risk for atrial fibrillation, a common irregular heartbeat. You'll record short heart tracings at home, and the study team will review them to find hidden risk factors.
