CorkAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT05487612Recruiting
MiECC heart-lung machine vs standard bypass during heart surgery
This trial compares a newer heart-lung machine setup (MiECC) with the usual bypass technique during certain heart operations. It may help see whether MiECC changes outcomes like the need for blood transfusions or recovery after surgery.
TorontoAges 18–85 - 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+ - NCT05770349Recruiting
Heart failure patients having bypass surgery are studied
This study looks at tiny structures inside heart muscle cells (especially “power stations” in the cells) in people with certain types of heart failure who are getting coronary bypass surgery. It may help researchers better understand what changes happen in the heart and how this could guide future care.
TomskAges 18 years+ - NCT05829889Recruiting
FFR test versus angiogram to guide left main heart treatment
This trial compares two ways to decide how to treat a narrowed “left main” coronary artery: a pressure-based test (FFR) versus standard X-ray imaging (angiography). It aims to see which approach better helps choose safe, appropriate treatment using a stent when appropriate.
Hong KongAges 20 years+ - NCT05831085Recruiting
Compare procedures to improve heart blood flow in diabetes
This study compares two ways to restore blood flow to the heart—stent placement (PCI) versus bypass surgery (CABG)—in people with diabetes and significant multi-vessel coronary artery disease. It looks at outcomes using both standard heart tests and additional imaging/functional measurements to guide the best revascularization strategy.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 20 years+ - NCT05852704RecruitingPhase 3
Dapagliflozin to prevent irregular heart rhythm after bypass surgery
This trial looks at whether dapagliflozin (a diabetes medicine that helps the kidneys and heart) can lower the chance of atrial fibrillation, an irregular heart rhythm, after coronary artery bypass (CABG) surgery. If you’re scheduled for planned bypass surgery, this study may help reduce post-operative rhythm problems.
BrnoAges 18 years+ - NCT05972070Recruiting
Telemedicine home cardiac rehab after heart procedure
This trial studies whether cardiac rehabilitation done at home, with help from telemedicine, is safe and helps you stick with the program after a recent heart procedure. It may help you recover with more convenience while still improving heart-related fitness and adherence.
Brookfield, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT06001502Recruiting
Virtual reality for pain and anxiety after heart bypass surgery
This trial tests whether using virtual reality (VR) goggles after heart bypass surgery can help reduce pain and anxiety. If you are having a planned CABG and have no major vision, hearing, or other health issues, you may be eligible.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT06028165Recruiting
Heart bypass surgery planning with CT versus standard angiogram
This trial compares two ways to plan heart bypass surgery: a CT scan that measures blood flow (CT-FFR) versus the usual heart catheter X-ray (angiogram). It aims to see which method leads to better outcomes for people with blocked heart arteries.
Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-doAges 40–80 - 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 - NCT06141525Recruiting
Remote conditioning for safer heart bypass recovery
