Stents vs drug-coated balloons for small or complex heart vessels
This trial compares two treatments—stents and paclitaxel-coated balloons—for people with narrowed heart arteries that are small, long, or complex. It aims to find which option works better to restore blood flow.
Lucerne, Canton of LucerneAges 18 years+ - NCT07394959Recruiting
Guided hydration to protect kidneys in elderly heart patients
This trial tests a new way to manage fluids during heart procedures to prevent kidney injury. It uses a special vest that measures lung fluid to guide how much hydration you get.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 60 years+ - NCT06568159Recruiting
Sleep apnea treatment in heart patients
This study looks at how well people with heart disease or high heart risk follow their sleep apnea treatment, comparing a mouth device (MAD) to a CPAP machine. It aims to find which treatment works better for daily use.
MontpellierAges 18 years+ - NCT06101862Recruiting
CT scan vs. angiogram for certain heart attacks
This trial compares two ways to look at heart arteries: a CT scan (noninvasive) versus a traditional angiogram (a tube put into an artery). The goal is to see which is better for people having a certain type of heart attack.
Copenhagen, HellerupAges Any age - NCT07386418Recruiting
Angina thresholds study for patients needing stent treatment
This trial is testing a new way to measure blood flow in the heart during exercise to better understand angina. You may be eligible if you have at least two blocked heart arteries and are scheduled for stent placement.
BasildonAges 18 years+ - NCT07388745Recruiting
Comparing two pain blocks for heart bypass surgery
This study compares two different nerve-block injections (one near the spine, one under the shoulder blade) to see which provides better pain relief after heart bypass surgery. If you are scheduled for a planned bypass and are in reasonably good health, you might be able to join.
KütahyaAges 45–85 - NCT07380399Recruiting
Using the ulnar artery for heart tests when the radial artery is blocked
This trial looks at using the ulnar artery in the wrist instead of the radial artery for heart catheterization or stent placement, when the radial artery on that side is blocked. It may be an option for people who cannot use the other arm's radial artery.
AthensAges 18 years+ - NCT06075433Recruiting
One year of blood thinners after a GENOSS stent for heart disease
This study tests whether taking two blood thinners for one year after getting a special GENOSS stent is safe and works well for people with coronary artery disease, especially if the stent placement was complex. The goal is to prevent blood clots and keep your artery open.
Wŏnju, Gangwon StateAges 19 years+ - NCT06075420Recruiting
Shorter blood thinner use after GENOSS stent in heart disease
This trial tests whether a shorter course of dual antiplatelet therapy (two blood thinners) is safe and effective for people who have received a GENOSS stent for coronary artery disease. It aims to reduce the risk of bleeding while still preventing heart attacks.
Wŏnju, Gangwon StateAges 19 years+ - NCT07371806Recruiting
Mindfulness for stress in women with heart disease
This trial tests if a mindfulness-based stress reduction program can help women with coronary artery disease. It focuses on reducing anxiety and improving well-being.
Kayseri, Türki̇yeAges 18–50 - NCT07378163Recruiting
Patient and doctor preferences for stent devices
This trial asks patients who have had a stent placed for heart artery disease and their doctors what they prefer in a stent. It aims to understand what factors matter most when choosing a device.
