This trial uses a special pressure wire called RFR to help doctors decide whether a stent is needed for a moderate heart artery blockage. It aims to make sure only the blockages that really need treatment get stented, which may reduce unnecessary procedures.
Bucheon-si, Gyeonggi-doAges 20–90 - NCT06205810Recruiting
Complete study on heart artery blockages
This trial looks at people with a blockage in a heart artery of 50% or more. It tests a new way to check the blockage using a special CT scan. This could help decide the best treatment to prevent future heart problems.
Aalst, Oost-VlaanderenAges 18 years+ - NCT06258681Recruiting
Breathing exercise device for recovery after heart surgery
This trial tests a new breathing exercise device designed to help your lungs recover after heart surgery. It may make your breathing easier and speed up your return to daily activities.
Istanbul, IstanbulAges 40–65 - NCT06313645Recruiting
Blood vessel aging and heart attack risk study
This study looks at how blood vessel aging relates to the type of fatty buildup in your arteries that can cause heart attacks. If you've had a recent heart attack, chest pain (angina), or minor artery disease and do not have advanced heart failure, kidney failure, active cancer, or prior bypass surgery, you may be able to join.
Milan, LombardyAges 18–75 - NCT06445608Recruiting
Study of a heart pump for high-risk angioplasty
This trial tests a temporary heart pump (called the KARDION Cory P4) used during a high-risk angioplasty (stenting) procedure. The pump helps keep blood flowing in patients whose heart is weak or who have complex blockages, aiming to make the procedure safer.
Chandler, ArizonaAges 18–90 - NCT06453538Recruiting
Sleep and breathing in bypass surgery patients
This study looks at how well patients sleep and if they have breathing problems during sleep before and after heart bypass surgery. It may help understand how sleep affects recovery.
TurkuAges 18–90 - NCT06509893RecruitingPhase 4
Ticagrelor alone after stent placement
This study tests if a single blood thinner (ticagrelor) works well enough after getting a heart stent, instead of the usual two blood thinners. It may simplify your daily medication routine.
Shiraz, FarsAges 20–80 - NCT06820970Recruiting
Combined therapy for heart artery blockages that weren't fully opened
This trial tests if combining a new heart procedure with a special type of therapy called mindfulness therapy can help prevent heart problems in people with coronary artery disease that could not be fully fixed with stents or surgery.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18 years+ - NCT07035106Recruiting
Using wearables to track recovery after ICU
This study tests if a wearable device and health summaries can help people recover after a stay in the intensive care unit (ICU). It is for people who have diabetes or heart problems and left the ICU within the last 2 years.
ViennaAges 18–65 - NCT07048808RecruitingPhase 2
Gene therapy for chronic chest pain
This trial tests a new gene therapy (XC001) delivered through a thin tube into your heart's blood vessels. It aims to grow new blood vessels to relieve chest pain in people with chronic angina who have no other treatment options.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 18–85 - NCT07444697Recruiting
Erections after heart stent in men with and without heart attack
This study looks at how having a stent placed affects men's ability to have erections. It compares men who had a heart attack with those who had stable chest pain. If you take part, you will fill out short questionnaires about your sexual function and recovery for 6 months.
KirikkaleAges 30–75 - NCT07523880Recruiting
Blood Markers Study for Heart Disease and Blood Clot Risk
This study examines new blood markers to predict blood clot and bleeding risks in patients with heart disease taking blood thinners. Understanding these markers may help doctors better predict complications and adjust treatment for individual patients.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18 years+ - NCT07625488Enrolling by invitation
Heart Disease Risk Follow-up Study for Former Athletes
This study follows up with people who participated in a heart-health study between 2012 and 2014. Researchers will use heart imaging and exercise tests to check your cardiovascular health and learn more about heart disease risk in athletes.
NijmegenAges 45 years+ - NCT07195968Enrolling by invitation
Comparing nitroglycerin and saline for heart artery testing
This trial compares two ways to test blood flow in the heart arteries: one uses a medicine called nitroglycerin, and the other uses salt water. It may help people with partial blockages (50-90%) in their heart arteries, especially if they have not had a recent serious heart attack.
Hsinchu, SelectAges 21 years+ - NCT06542575Enrolling by invitation
Home heart rehab with app after stent
This trial tests a home-based program that uses a smartphone app (digital therapy) to help people with high-risk heart conditions after a stent procedure. The goal is to improve recovery through exercise and lifestyle support, all from home.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–75 - NCT02966665RecruitingPhase 1
Testing blood vessel function in people of different health conditions
This early study measures how well your blood vessels work using tests that may include MRI. It compares healthy people with people who have conditions like COPD, pulmonary arterial hypertension, heart failure, or high blood pressure, to better understand “vascular function” in health and disease.
Salt Lake City, UtahAges 18 years+ - NCT04982419RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Remote arm treatment to protect heart and kidneys in heart failure
This trial tests whether a simple “arm cuff” treatment done before a heart artery procedure can help protect the kidneys and the heart in people with congestive heart failure. If it works, it may lower the chance of kidney injury around the time of the scan/stent procedure.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05919342Recruiting
Screening for early heart failure in primary care or at home
This trial tests whether simple screening using a blood test (natriuretic peptides) plus an ultrasound of the heart (echocardiogram) can find early heart failure sooner. Finding it earlier may help doctors start the right management to prevent it from getting worse.
Cleveland, OhioAges 40 years+ - NCT07053254Recruiting
Studying vein grafts in older heart bypass patients
This trial looks at how vein grafts work in older adults who need coronary artery bypass surgery. It aims to understand why grafts sometimes fail, so doctors can improve treatment.
SeoulAges 19–100 - NCT03876223Recruiting
Testing imaging to study heart symptoms without blocked arteries
This trial studies people who have heart-related symptoms but do not have clear blocked heart arteries, using special heart imaging. It may help researchers better understand early forms of heart weakness (with preserved pumping function) and improve how these conditions are diagnosed.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05257629RecruitingPhase 3
Aggressive smoking quit program after heart problems
This trial tests whether a strong quit plan using varenicline (a quit pill) plus nicotine e-cigarettes, along with counseling, helps people stop smoking after a recent heart-related event. It’s aimed at people who want to quit and can safely stay involved for about a year.
New Westminster, British ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07597031Recruiting
