Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is reaching epidemic proportions in the aging U.S. and European populations, but the mechanisms of increased susceptibility to atrial fibrillation are still unknown. In this study, we look to further examine genetic and medical co-morbidity influence of atrial fibrillation duration and response to medications. In Specific Aim 1, we propose the creation of a Veterans Affairs AF Biorepository (VAAFBio), which is a resource that will collect and store clinical, demographic, blood and DNA samples from patients with atrial fibrillation to aide this study and future studies of this type in the VA population. In Specific Aim 2, examine common genetic polymorphisms in veteran patients with atrial fibrillation and examine gene-environment interactions with risk factors for atrial fibrillation.
