Leg raising vs. medication for heart bypass surgery
This trial compares a simple leg-raising technique to a medicine (noradrenaline) to help keep blood pressure stable during heart bypass surgery. It may help you avoid stronger drugs and have a smoother recovery.
Caluire-et-Cuire, Auvergne-Rhône-AlpesAges 18 years+ - NCT07116083Recruiting
Study of a new way to check branch blockages after stent placement
This trial looks at a new method called µQFR to check if there are any significant blockages in the side branches of heart arteries after a single stent has been placed. It aims to see if this method can help doctors decide if more treatment is needed.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07078370Enrolling by invitation
Testing a lab-made blood vessel for heart bypass surgery
This trial tests a lab-made blood vessel (called an ATEV) used as a bypass graft during heart surgery. The ATEV is designed for people who don't have enough healthy leg vein for standard bypass grafts, and it may help restore blood flow to the heart more safely.
PoznanAges 45–75 - NCT06606821RecruitingPhase 4
Tirzepatide for heart health in people with overweight or obesity
This trial tests the weight‑loss medication tirzepatide (Mounjaro) in people who are overweight or have obesity and have stable coronary artery disease. The goal is to see if tirzepatide can reduce dangerous fatty plaque in heart arteries.
CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT07068776Recruiting
Shockwave therapy to improve leg wound healing after bypass surgery
This trial tests if using shockwave therapy on leg veins during coronary artery bypass surgery can help the leg wound heal better. It may be a good fit if you need 2 or more vein grafts and have stable kidney function.
Innsbruck, TyrolAges 18 years+ - NCT07013344Recruiting
Link between NT-proBNP and heart artery disease
This study looks at a blood test called NT-proBNP to see if it can help predict how much blockage is in the heart's arteries. It may help doctors better understand heart disease risk.
Milan, ItalyAges 18 years+ - NCT06961136Recruiting
Herbal medicine for recovery after heart bypass surgery
This trial tests if a traditional Chinese herbal formula (Fuzheng Yangxin Prescription) can help people recover faster after coronary artery bypass surgery. It is for people who have a specific pattern of symptoms (called Qi-Yin deficiency) after their operation.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 25–85 - NCT06956911Enrolling by invitation
Low-resistance exercise with blood flow restriction after heart surgery
This trial tests if gentle arm exercises with a special blood pressure cuff can help men recover their lung function after heart surgery. It may be an option for those who are stable and ready to follow simple instructions.
