Protocol for a randomized controlled trial of intensive blood pressure control on cardiovascular risk reduction in patients with atrial fibrillation: Rationale and design of the CRAFT trial
Study context
- Population
- Patients with atrial fibrillation (AF)planned sample size 1,675
- Planned comparison
- Intensive vs standard blood pressure (BP) control
Methodological detailsprotocol, investigator-initiated, international, multicentre, open-label, parallel-group, blinded outcome assessment, 80% power to detect a win-ratio of 1.50 for intensive vs standard BP control, Visits at 1, 2, 3 and 6 months post-randomisation, then every 6 months
