What it tests, as registered

Dietary Caffeine Intake

Registered summary

The CAFIB trial is a multicenter, randomized, open-label, crossover clinical trial designed to determine whether habitual caffeine consumption in coffe adversely affects rate control in patients with permanent atrial fibrillation (AF). The rationale stems from the discrepancy between traditional clinical recommendations, which often advise patients with arrhythmias to avoid caffeine, and the growing body of evidence suggesting that moderate coffee consumption is not associated with an increased risk of AF and may even confer cardiovascular benefits.
