About
The study is an investigator-sponsored, prospective, multicenter, randomized, open-label study designed to compare efficacy and safety between bivalirudin and heparin in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation undergoing percutaneous left atrial appendage occlusion.
Full description
Bivalirudin, a direct thrombin inhibitor, emerged as an important representative of intravenous anticoagulant and has been recommended for treatment of acute coronary syndromes with percutaneous coronary intervention according to American and European guidelines.On concerns of risk of bleeding and thrombosis,bivalirudin shows significant advantages over traditional glycoprotein inhibitors(GPI).However,the research about the application of bivalirudin for patients at high-risk of stroke and bleeding with non-valvular atrial fibrillation is still at blank stage.Percutaneous left atrial appendage occlusion is nowadays an effective alternative for stroke prevention and its targeted population is featured as CHA2DS2 score≥2 and/or HAS-BLED score≥3.The purpose of this multi-center trial is to evaluate the safety and peri-procedual efficacy of bivalirudin for patients at high-risk atrial fibrillation patients undergoing percutaneous left atrial appendage occlusion.
