Recruiting studies near Atlanta
- NCT07582848Recruiting

Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05913908Recruiting
Valve procedure study for severe tricuspid leakage
This trial tests how well a new catheter-based valve system works for people with severe (or worse) tricuspid valve leaking who still have symptoms despite medicines. It aims to improve outcomes by treating the leaking valve without open-heart surgery, if your heart structure and overall health fit the study.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05932615Enrolling by invitation
Testing a new transcatheter valve for aortic valve narrowing
This trial studies how safe and effective the NAVITOR valve is for treating narrowed aortic valves placed through a catheter (no open-heart surgery). It may be an option if you’re at intermediate-to-low surgical risk and meet heart ultrasound/CT measurements.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT00243776Recruiting
Study of heart tissue changes during certain heart surgeries
This study collects and analyzes small samples of heart tissue during specific heart operations in babies or children. The goal is to better understand how the heart develops after birth, which could improve future care.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges Up to 20 years - NCT07582861Recruiting
Support for Mothers Expecting Babies With Heart Disease

The research tests whether counseling and coping strategies provided before and after birth can help mothers manage stress and anxiety during this challenging time.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06526195Recruiting
A study of CardioMEMS and HeartMate 3 for advanced heart failure
This trial tests if a combination of a tiny lung-artery pressure sensor (CardioMEMS) and a mechanical heart pump (HeartMate 3) is safe and effective for people with advanced heart failure. If you qualify, you'll either get the heart pump plus standard medical therapy, or continue with standard therapy alone and have your pressure monitored remotely.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06537258Recruiting
Heart rate and stress in teens with IBD
This study tests whether a virtual program can help teens with IBD who also have depression or anxiety. It looks at how stress affects the body through heart rate patterns and aims to improve both gut and emotional health.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 13–18 - NCT06478017RecruitingPhase 2
Belatacept for heart transplant recipients
This study tests a drug called belatacept, which may help prevent the body from rejecting a new heart. It is given after a heart transplant, and the goal is to see if it works as well as or better than standard anti-rejection medicines.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18–76 - NCT06310031Recruiting
Testing BrioVAD heart pump for severe heart failure
This trial tests a new left-ventricular assist device (LVAD) called BrioVAD for people with advanced heart failure who are not getting enough benefit from medicines. If you qualify, the device is implanted to help your heart pump blood.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18–100 - NCT05869825Recruiting
Breathing support after extubation in babies after heart surgery
This trial compares two ways of helping babies breathe after their breathing tube is removed following heart surgery. It may help find which support method works better and is safer for the smallest patients.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges Up to 1 year - NCT02852031Recruiting
Care program for newborns needing the Norwood procedure
This trial focuses on improving care for babies born with certain complex heart conditions where only one pumping chamber works. It is meant for babies (including unborn babies) who are planned to have the Norwood procedure, which is a common early surgery.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges Up to 1.3 years - NCT04124120Recruiting
Single vs multiple bypass grafts for women heart surgery
This study compares outcomes of using one bypass graft versus multiple bypass grafts during coronary artery bypass surgery in women. It aims to see which approach leads to better recovery and heart outcomes for eligible patients.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT03891160Recruiting
Using heart scans to plan a support pump in children
This trial is testing a way to help doctors assess babies and children with congenital heart disease and heart failure before placing a temporary heart support pump. It may help improve planning by using heart scans to decide who needs support and how to prepare.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges Any age - NCT04604418Recruiting
Tracking outcomes during non-heart procedures in children with heart defects
This study looks at how children with congenital heart disease do during routine non-heart procedures, including medical or minor treatments that are not heart-related. It also measures how much health care they use afterward, which may help improve care planning for families.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges Up to 21 years - NCT07525843Recruiting
Well-being education program for teens with heart disease
This study tests whether a special education program about managing emotions and stress helps teenagers with moderate-to-severe congenital heart disease (a heart condition from birth) feel better and cope with their condition. Participants attend sessions and complete surveys over time.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 12–17 - NCT02061436Recruiting
Chronic total occlusion procedure registry
This study collects data from patients who are having a procedure to open a completely blocked coronary artery. It may help improve future treatments for this condition.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges Any age - NCT04451044Enrolling by invitation
Guided heart stent planning using an inside pressure sensor
This study tests whether using a tiny pressure sensor in heart arteries during a procedure can better guide where to place a stent. It may help doctors choose the safest and most effective stent plan by more accurately measuring artery narrowing.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07466745Recruiting
New Pulmonary Valve Study for Kids Needing Replacement
This study tests a new type of replacement valve for children who need a new pulmonary valve (the valve between the heart and lungs). Researchers want to see if the valve works safely and well in real-world use.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 1.5 years–16 years - NCT05918211RecruitingPhase 3
Udenafil test during exercise for teens with Fontan circulation
This trial tests whether udenafil helps teens and young people with Fontan circulation do better on exercise and breathing-related measures over time. You’d need to be on blood-thinning medicine, and be able to complete exercise testing safely.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 12–18 - NCT06795763Enrolling by invitation
New imaging & catheter system for blocked heart arteries
This trial tests a new imaging and catheter system to treat chronic total blockages in heart arteries. If you still have chest pain or other symptoms despite medical therapy, this study may help open the blockage and improve blood flow.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06563895RecruitingPhase 3
Testing acoramidis to prevent ATTR amyloidosis in gene carriers
This trial tests a daily pill called acoramidis to see if it can prevent ATTR amyloidosis in people who carry a gene mutation but have no symptoms yet. It aims to stop the disease before it starts.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18–75 - NCT07797335RecruitingPhase 3
Zenagamtide for diabetes and weight loss
This study compares a new once-weekly injection to lower blood sugar levels against a standard daily injection in people with type 2 diabetes who are at high risk for heart problems. It aims to find out if the new medicine is more effective in managing blood sugar and body weight.

What taking part in a heart diseases study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
