NCT ID NCT05511649
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This completed study tracked 832 heart attack patients in China who developed new-onset atrial fibrillation during their hospital stay. Researchers used continuous heart monitoring to see how the amount of AFib affected risks like death, another heart attack, or heart failure. The goal is to better understand which patients need closer follow-up.
