Recruiting studies
- NCT07513974Recruiting
Pain sensitivity test to predict opioid needs in heart surgery
This study measures how sensitive you are to pain using a special device, then tracks how much pain medication you need during heart surgery. The goal is to see if pain sensitivity can predict opioid requirements and help doctors customize pain control for you.

Bed height and CPR quality in pediatric simulation
This trial tests how the height of a hospital bed affects chest compression quality and the physical strain on doctors during CPR on a child-sized manikin. It may help find the optimal bed height to improve CPR effectiveness.
Antalya, AntalyaAges 18 years+ - NCT06131112Recruiting
PET scan for heart inflammation in sarcoidosis
This study tests if a special PET scan with 64Cu-DOTATATE can detect inflammation in the heart caused by sarcoidosis. It may help diagnose heart sarcoidosis more accurately in people with symptoms or known disease.
CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT06817005Recruiting
Pain monitoring during heart surgery
This trial tests a device to measure pain during heart surgery using a heart-lung machine. It may help doctors better manage your pain during the procedure.
StrasbourgAges 18 years+ - NCT07235865Recruiting
Blood test to find and monitor heart masses
This trial uses a blood test (liquid biopsy) to help find and monitor heart masses without surgery. It may help diagnose what the mass is and how it changes over time.
Milan, ItaliaAges 12 years+ - NCT07211282Recruiting
Activity tracking for late-stage cardiac rehab
This trial uses a smartphone app to monitor and guide your physical activity during the final phase of cardiac rehab. It aims to help you safely stay active and improve your recovery.
Edegem, AntwerpAges 18 years+ - NCT07205393Recruiting
Heart rehab after valve replacement surgery
This trial tests a phase one cardiac rehabilitation program for people who have had their mitral or aortic heart valve replaced. It aims to see if the rehab helps recovery. You might qualify if you had planned (not emergency) valve surgery and are stable enough for light exercise.
QinaAges 40–55 - NCT07200726Recruiting
Brain inflammation and thinking after heart surgery
This study looks at whether brain inflammation during heart surgery may affect memory and thinking. It includes people aged 60 and older who are having planned heart surgery.
Genk, LimburgAges 60 years+ - NCT07306949RecruitingPhase 4
Acoramidis for transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis
This trial tests a new medicine called acoramidis for people with a heart condition caused by a protein called transthyretin. It includes people who are newly diagnosed or who are already taking another drug (tafamidis) and may benefit from switching. The goal is to see how well acoramidis works and how it affects heart-related measures.
Bunkyō CityAges 18–100 - NCT05826444Recruiting
Study of heart transplant micro-vessel disease using special tests
This trial is for people who have had a heart transplant and are having symptoms or need routine invasive check-ups. It tests an approach aimed at better understanding and monitoring “micro-vessel” problems in the transplanted heart.
BerlinAges Any age - NCT07037043RecruitingPhase 3
Steroid medicines for high-risk heart surgery patients
This trial tests whether adding two common medicines, hydrocortisone and fludrocortisone, to standard care can help people who are at higher risk during planned heart surgery. It aims to see if this combination can reduce serious complications after surgery.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT07012668Recruiting
Treatments for heart-brain conditions and post-surgery stroke
This trial is studying different treatments for people who have conditions that affect both the heart and brain, or who have had a stroke or other brain blood vessel problem after heart surgery. The goal is to find out which treatments work best and see what factors affect the results.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT07288840Enrolling by invitation
Exercise plan for heart recovery monitored by heart rate
This study tests a special exercise program for people with heart disease or heart failure. The goal is to see if the exercises can help improve how your heart responds to activity and daily life.
Leiria, Leiria DistrictAges 18 years+ - NCT06700681Enrolling by invitation
Comparing two sedatives for heart ablation procedures
This trial compares two sedative medicines (remimazolam and propofol) given during heart ablation procedures. The study uses brain-wave monitoring to see which medicine provides better sedation and recovery. It's for people who are already scheduled for this procedure with a specific doctor.
TaipeiAges 20–80 - NCT06899867Recruiting
Comparing heart monitoring methods during liver transplant
This trial compares two ways to monitor how well your heart is pumping during liver transplant surgery. One method uses a thin tube in your blood vessels, and the other uses an ultrasound probe placed in your food pipe.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cardiac?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,308 recruiting cardiac studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a cardiac trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a cardiac trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
