Recruiting studies
- NCT07660419Recruiting

Study of OPN Balloon for Opening Hardened Heart Vessel Blockages
This is a follow-up study of patients who have already had a heart procedure using a special balloon (OPN balloon) to open calcified (hardened) blockages in heart arteries. Researchers will review records to see how well this balloon works and how patients recover.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06711822Recruiting
Shockwave catheter for calcified heart artery blockages
This study tests a new catheter device (ShockPulse-10) that uses shockwaves to crack calcium in heart arteries before placing a stent. It is designed for people with hard, calcified blockages that are difficult to treat with balloons alone.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07596706Recruiting
Comparing two stent techniques for left main branch blockages
This trial compares two ways of placing a stent at the point where the main left artery splits into two branches. It is for people who have a blockage in the very beginning of one of those branches, and it uses advanced drug-eluting stents to see which method works better.
Istanbul, Please SelectAges 18–85 - NCT07590635Recruiting
Heart Recovery Program Using Online Health Tools
This study tests a new heart rehabilitation program that combines online tools with personalized support for people who've had heart procedures. It aims to help you recover safely and manage your heart health from home.
BergenAges 18 years+ - NCT07577609Recruiting
AI-assisted CT scan to assess heart artery disease risk
This study uses artificial intelligence to analyze your heart CT scan and better predict your risk of coronary artery disease (narrowing of the arteries that supply your heart). The goal is to help doctors identify who might need earlier treatment or more careful monitoring.
GalwayAges 18 years+ - NCT07565805Recruiting
Heart Imaging Registry Comparing Two Scanning Methods
This study compares two different ways of taking detailed pictures of your heart arteries: a CT scan and an optical scan done during a heart catheterization. The researchers want to understand how well these two methods show blockages in your arteries.
BernAges Any age - NCT07523880Recruiting
Blood Markers Study for Heart Disease and Blood Clot Risk
This study examines new blood markers to predict blood clot and bleeding risks in patients with heart disease taking blood thinners. Understanding these markers may help doctors better predict complications and adjust treatment for individual patients.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18 years+ - NCT07510438Recruiting
Pulse IVL treatment for hardened arteries in the heart
This trial tests a new device that uses sound waves to break up calcium deposits in heart arteries, making them easier to open. It may help people with coronary artery disease who have not had prior stents or recent heart attacks.
Sydney, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT05529459Recruiting
Guidance method for opening heart blockages with stents
This study compares two ways of deciding how completely to open blocked heart arteries using drug-eluting stents. It aims to see which guidance approach improves results and safety for people with coronary artery disease who need a PCI (heart catheter procedure).
AnyangAges 19 years+ - NCT07491107Recruiting
Registry of a new drug-eluting stent for complex coronary lesions
This study tracks how well a new drug-eluting stent (a small mesh tube that keeps arteries open and releases medicine to prevent re-narrowing) performs in people with complex coronary artery disease. It aims to see if the stent is safe and effective in real-world patients with long, calcified, or multiple blocked arteries.
Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do SulAges 18 years+ - NCT06775028Recruiting
Integrated care for older adults with atrial fibrillation
This trial is testing a new approach to care for older adults with atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) who also have other health conditions. It aims to see if a more integrated, team-based care plan helps improve their overall health and quality of life.
HaskovoAges 65 years+ - NCT07480915Recruiting
Heart failure risk after bypass surgery
This study looks at how to predict major heart problems in people with heart failure who are scheduled for bypass surgery (CABG). It aims to improve risk assessment before the procedure.
Tomsk, Tomsk OblastAges Any age - NCT07479433Recruiting
New approach to plan stent placement using CT scans
This study tests if using a special CT scan analysis can help doctors plan where to place stents for blocked arteries. It might make the procedure safer and more effective for people who are scheduled for a planned stent procedure.
Marietta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07476040Recruiting
Better care for new stable chest pain
This trial tests a new way to manage stable chest pain that started recently. It aims to improve diagnosis and treatment for people suspected of having coronary artery disease.
AugsburgAges 30 years+ - NCT07479056Recruiting
Fexuprazan to prevent stomach bleeding in heart patients on two blood thinners
This trial tests whether fexuprazan can prevent upper gastrointestinal bleeding in people at high risk who need two antiplatelet drugs for at least 6 months after a heart stent. If you are on dual antiplatelet therapy after a stent and have risk factors like older age, low weight, or history of ulcers, this study may help protect your stomach.
Seoul, Eunpyeong-guAges 20 years+ - NCT07463664Recruiting
Drug-coated balloons for blocked heart arteries
This trial tests whether a drug-coated balloon, used without a permanent stent, can safely open completely blocked heart arteries that have been blocked for at least 3 months. It may offer an option that avoids leaving a metal stent behind.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06794684Recruiting
Watching Plaque in Heart Arteries Over Time
This study uses CT scans and special camera images inside your arteries to watch how plaque buildup in heart arteries changes over time. It may help you understand your risk and guide future treatment.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT06442787Recruiting
New 3D Planning for Jaw Surgery
This study tests a new way to plan jaw surgery using 3D computer models, custom guides, and plates. It may help people with a certain type of jaw misalignment get more precise results from their surgery.
Istanbul, FatihAges 18–55 - NCT07451522Recruiting
Comparing pain relief methods after heart bypass surgery
This study compares different ways to manage pain after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), which is heart bypass surgery. The goal is to find which approach works best and is safest for patients in the early recovery period.
