The Effect of Atrial Fibrillation Hemodynamics on Regulation of Cerebral Blood Flow

NCT00745602 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2019-01-09

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The proposed research will investigate whether the irregular effects of atrial fibrillation on the body's circulation directly impacts the regulation of cerebral blood flow. To further delineate this finding, investigation of these potential effects will include differences in postural positioning. This data will be used to further understand the overall hemodynamic effects of atrial fibrillation on extra-cardiac organs of the body.
