- Allocation: RandomizedIntervention Model: Parallel AssignmentIntervention Model Description: The AFFECT trial is a randomized clinical trial with a non-inferioirity setting studying the applicability of delayed rhythm control in the management of acute paroxysmal or persistent atrial fibrillation or flutter. Patients are randomized to two treatment protocols in 2:3 ratio. For every two patients randomized to conventional treatment, three patients are randomized to experimental treatment. The randomization ratio is designed to allow for maximally one third of the patients in the experimental treatment group to drop-out without compromising the power of the study. Overall five hundred patients are required to show non-inferiority with a one-sided alpha value 0.025 and 90% power expecting a maximal drop out rate of 33% (n=100) from the experimental treatment arm.Masking: Single (Outcomes Assessor)Primary Purpose: Treatment
