Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: The aim of the study is to compare the effectiveness of the combined antiarrhythmic therapy with flecainide IV and ranolazine PO versus monotherapy with flecainide IV, in the restoration of sinus rhythm in patients with recent AF (<48 hours), which are suitable for drug reassignment and meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria. ;Secondary Objective: Not applicable;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint is the percentage of AF patients referred sinus rhythm within 3 hours after the start of the combined antiarrhythmic treatment with flecainide IV and PC ranolazine PC versus flecainide IV monotherapy. ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: From baseline to the end of trial. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): 1. Comparison of the mean (standard deviation) time from the start of treatment to restoration of sinus rhythm in the combined antiarrhythmic group treatment with flecainide IV and ranolazine PO versus flecainide IV monotherapy. 2. Percentage of patients with sinus rhythm recovery 6 hours after onset combined antiarrhythmic therapy with flecainide IV and ranolazine PO versus monotherapy with flecainide IV ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: From baseline to the end of trial. | — |
