PreMISe-AF Trial Summary

This trial will develop and test a clinical AF risk estimation tool to help inform management decisions with ischemic stroke patients. The hypothesis is that cardiac monitoring utilization will be positively correlated with the predicted risk of AF.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for adults 18 or older who have had an ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack and are admitted to the Massachusetts General Hospital inpatient stroke service. It's not open to those who don't meet these specific conditions.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study aims to develop a tool that predicts atrial fibrillation (AF) risk, integrated into the electronic health record system. It will test if this tool helps doctors decide on heart monitoring for stroke patients based on their AF risk.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since this trial involves using an electronic alert system rather than medication, there are no direct side effects from interventions like drugs. However, changes in patient management could indirectly affect outcomes.

Experimental Treatment

Group I: Atrial Fibrillation Risk Estimation ToolExperimental Treatment1 Intervention

For eligible patients presenting with an acute ischemic stroke, a clinical atrial fibrillation risk estimation tool will be displayed in the patient's electronic health record through a best practice alert (BPA). The alert will display for the stroke neurologist caring for the patient when they first open the patient's chart. The neurologist may accept the automatically generated atrial fibrillation risk score displayed in the BPA, may modify some of the inputs of the score based on the patient's personal medical history and re-calculate, or may choose to dismiss the BPA.
