flecainide and Recrudescence

flecainide has been researched along with Recrudescence in 54 studies

Flecainide: A potent anti-arrhythmia agent, effective in a wide range of ventricular and atrial ARRHYTHMIAS and TACHYCARDIAS.
flecainide : A monocarboxylic acid amide obtained by formal condensation of the carboxy group of 2,5-bis(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)benzoic acid with the primary amino group of piperidin-2-ylmethylamine. An antiarrhythmic agent used (in the form of its acetate salt) to prevent and treat tachyarrhythmia (abnormal fast rhythm of the heart).

Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve (AUC) for the Detection of Atrial Fibrillation

The outcome measure is the AUC of the curve obtained from the ROC analysis. The curve is a combination of specificity and sensitivity of detecting atrial fibrillation. The range of the curve is 0.5-1.0 where 0.5 would be random detection of atrial fibrillation and 1.0 would be perfect performance. (NCT04267133)
