MadinahAges 55–58 - NCT07773064Recruiting
Eye scan and blood test to predict heart disease risk
This study looks at whether images of the back of your eye and certain substances in your blood can help identify people at high risk for heart disease. If you're having tests for chest pain or other heart concerns, this research may help improve early detection.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–100 - NCT06084091Recruiting
Measuring heart oxygen levels during open-heart surgery
This study measures oxygen levels in the heart muscle during open-heart surgery using a light-based technique. You may qualify if you are an adult scheduled for this surgery and can provide consent.
Helsinki, UusimaaAges 18–90 - NCT07521007RecruitingPhase 2
YN001 treatment for coronary artery disease
This study tests whether a new drug called YN001 can help people with coronary atherosclerosis (narrowing of heart blood vessels). The trial aims to see if it can improve outcomes in people who have early-stage blockages in their heart arteries.
Huntsville, AlabamaAges 18–80 - NCT03217006Recruiting
Compare one vs multiple heart artery grafts for bypass
This study looks at whether using one artery graft or multiple artery grafts during heart bypass surgery works better for people with specific coronary artery disease. You may be randomized to one approach, and the trial team will follow outcomes after surgery.
Boulder, ColoradoAges 18–70 - NCT07773870Recruiting
Cold weather exposure and heart healing after stent placement
This study looks at how living or working in cold regions affects heart recovery after a stent procedure. Participants will have heart imaging at the start and again 6 months later to see if cold exposure impacts heart function.
Beijing, Please Select An Option BelowAges 18–80 - 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+ - NCT07771127Recruiting
Comparing a special pad to a sandbag for groin bleeding after heart procedure
This study compares two ways to stop bleeding after a heart procedure through the groin: using a special pad or a sandbag. It aims to see which method works better and is safer.
