BeijingAges 18–80 - NCT05380622Recruiting
CT scan to study plaque and blood flow in heart disease
This study uses a special heart CT scan (coronary CT angiography) to look at plaque and how blood flows in people with coronary artery disease. It may help match your scan results with heart measurements and guide future care decisions.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT05532631Recruiting
Compare stent procedure versus bypass surgery for weak heart
This study compares two ways to improve blood flow to the heart—using stents through a catheter or bypass surgery—in people with heart muscle weakness and blockages in more than one coronary artery. It may help identify which approach leads to better outcomes over at least two years.
Créteil, Val De MarneAges 18 years+ - NCT03209414Recruiting
Study of frailty in heart patients receiving heart care
This trial looks at “frailty,” meaning reduced strength and resilience, in older adults with coronary artery disease who are getting heart care. It may help doctors better understand which patients are more at risk and how care decisions could be improved.
Zabrze, Upper SilesiaAges 65 years+ - NCT04772768Recruiting
Checking problems in vein bypass grafts in people with recurring chest pain
This study looks at how vein bypass grafts are working over time in people who had heart bypass surgery and now have recurring angina (chest discomfort). It may help doctors better understand why symptoms come back and how the heart and grafts change.
AmsterdamAges 18–90 - NCT06104033Recruiting
Drug-coated balloon for patients with heart artery disease in multiple vessels
This trial tests whether a drug-coated balloon is a good treatment option for people who have blockages in two or more heart arteries. It aims to see if this approach can safely open blocked arteries without a permanent stent.
SeoulAges 19–100 - NCT05346068Recruiting
Compare two balloon types for calcium-heavy blocked heart arteries
This trial studies whether one type of balloon works better than another for treating badly calcified (hardened) coronary artery blockages. If you qualify, you would be randomly assigned to get the tested balloon treatment during your heart procedure.
LucerneAges 18 years+ - NCT07810621Recruiting
Low cardiac output after heart surgery
This study looks at how well the heart pumps right after bypass surgery and whether a special monitor can help predict problems. It may help doctors support patients better after surgery.
Ankara, AnkaraAges 18 years+ - NCT06141525Recruiting
Remote conditioning for safer heart bypass recovery
This study tests whether a simple, non-invasive treatment called remote ischemic conditioning (using a blood pressure cuff on your arm) can help patients recover better after off-pump heart bypass surgery. The goal is to see if it reduces complications and improves heart function.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18–70 - NCT07795398RecruitingPhase 4
Stopping aspirin in older adults with stable heart disease
This trial tests whether older adults with stable heart disease can safely stop taking daily aspirin after two years without increasing the risk of heart attack or stroke. It may help reduce the side effects of long-term aspirin use.
CopenhagenAges 65 years+ - NCT07775742Recruiting
Exercise programs after heart bypass surgery
This study compares two exercise programs for people who have recovered from heart bypass surgery. One program involves high-intensity interval training, and the other is a home-based rehabilitation program. The goal is to see which program helps improve recovery and overall health.
MadinahAges 55–58 - NCT07769008Recruiting
CT scan versus angiogram before heart bypass surgery
This trial compares two imaging methods used before coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) to check for blocked heart vessels. The goal is to see if a CT scan is as good as the standard angiogram and equally helpful for planning surgery.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT07724184Recruiting
Treating calcified heart arteries with a stent
This trial tests a way to treat hardened, calcified heart artery blockages using a stent. It may help people who have moderate blockages that haven't been treated before.
AalborgAges 18–90 - NCT07711106Recruiting
Comparing expert IVUS to standard IVUS for left main artery stenting
This study compares two ways of using a special ultrasound camera (IVUS) inside your heart's main artery during stenting. The goal is to see if a new 'expert' computer system helps the doctor place the stent better than the standard IVUS method. It may help people with blockages at the Y-shaped split of the left main artery.
Saint PetersburgAges 18 years+ - NCT06075602Recruiting
Complex and calcified coronary artery disease: a registry study
This study watches how people with complex or calcified heart artery disease are treated (with stents or bypass surgery) and how they do over time. It aims to learn which treatments work best for tough blockages.
Lucerne, Canton of LucerneAges 18 years+ - NCT07669987Recruiting
Heart bypass surgery and artery imaging study
This study looks at whether a special imaging test called QFR, done before heart bypass surgery, can help predict how well the radial artery graft will work shortly after surgery. If you have severe blockages in your heart arteries and are scheduled for bypass surgery, this trial may be relevant.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07657650Recruiting
Imaging test for heart failure patients before revascularization
This trial uses a special imaging scan to see if heart muscle has damage from blocked arteries. It helps doctors decide if a procedure to open blocked arteries might improve your heart function.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT07611019Enrolling by invitationPhase 2/Phase 3
Colchicine to prevent heart rhythm problems after heart bypass surgery
This study tests whether taking colchicine (a common anti-inflammatory medication) before and after bypass heart surgery can prevent atrial fibrillation—an irregular heartbeat that sometimes occurs after surgery. Researchers hope this simple treatment might reduce complications and improve recovery.
TaipeiAges 20 years+ - NCT07601867Recruiting
Dapagliflozin to improve heart function after bypass surgery
This trial tests whether a diabetes medication called dapagliflozin can help improve how well the right side of your heart works after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting surgery (a way to reroute blood around blocked heart arteries). The goal is to see if this drug reduces strain on your heart during recovery.
Pyatigorsk, Stavropol KrayAges 18 years+ - NCT07514962Recruiting
Minimally invasive heart bypass surgery with a blood-thinner medication
This trial tests whether a blood-thinner drug called cangrelor helps patients who are having a special type of bypass surgery that uses a small incision instead of opening the whole chest. The surgery connects a healthy artery from your chest wall directly to a blocked heart vessel to restore blood flow.
Lugano, Ch/tiAges 18 years+ - NCT07476274Recruiting
Study of pneumonia after heart bypass surgery
This trial looks at pneumonia that happens in the hospital after coronary artery bypass surgery. It aims to understand who is at risk and how to better prevent or treat it.
Tomsk, Tomsk OblastAges 18 years+ - NCT07445997Recruiting
HbA1c and kidney injury after heart bypass surgery
This study looks at whether blood sugar levels (HbA1c) before surgery are linked to kidney problems after coronary artery bypass surgery. It may help doctors understand how to reduce risks for people with diabetes or high blood sugar.
BursaAges 18 years+ - NCT07400406Recruiting
A new MRI test to see calcified heart arteries
This trial tests a special MRI using a contrast agent called ferumoxytol to better see calcium buildup in heart arteries. It may help people who need a coronary angiogram and have some calcium visible on a prior CT scan.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT07390903Recruiting
Heart function test for difficult bypass weaning
This trial studies whether a heart ultrasound test called GLS can help predict complications when patients are taken off the heart-lung machine after heart surgery. It aims to improve management for better outcomes.
