Blood tests to predict silent strokes after heart procedures
This study looks at whether certain blood tests can help predict if small, silent strokes occur in the brain during heart or blood vessel procedures that carry a higher risk of clots. The goal is to better identify who might need extra protection during these procedures.
ThessalonikiAges 18 years+ - NCT06489080Recruiting
Heart attack follow-up study on survival and health
This study looks at how people with heart attacks do over time, including their survival and any heart-related events. It helps doctors understand more about the condition and how to improve care.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07806370Recruiting
Balloon vs. Stent for Heart Attack Patients with High Clot Burden
This study compares two treatments for heart attack patients with a large blood clot in the blocked artery: a drug-coated balloon versus a drug-eluting stent. The goal is to see which approach better prevents slow blood flow or no reflow right after the procedure.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18–75 - NCT07780942Recruiting
Testing a smartwatch for detecting heart attacks in people with chest pain
This study is testing how well a smartwatch can detect a specific type of heart attack (STEMI) in people who come to the hospital with chest pain. It aims to see if the smartwatch's ECG feature is accurate compared to standard hospital tests.
Cartagena, MurciaAges 18 years+ - NCT07764588Recruiting
Immune cell study after a heart attack
This study looks at how immune cells change in the first few hours after a severe heart attack (STEMI) and how that relates to early scar healing. It may help doctors understand why some patients heal better than others.
ShanghaiAges 18–80 - NCT04912518Recruiting
Dexmedetomidine for heart protection after a specific heart attack
This study tests whether dexmedetomidine can protect the heart in people who are having a specific type of heart attack (anterior STEMI) when treated within 6 hours of symptom start. You may be considered if your diagnosis and vital signs fit the study safety rules, and if you can take part in follow-up.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–75 - NCT07696390Recruiting
Virtual reality after a heart attack (STEMI)
This trial tests if using virtual reality in the intensive care unit helps people recover after a STEMI heart attack. If you are awake, able to communicate, and have had a stent placed, this could be for you.
VanAges 18–70 - NCT05410925RecruitingPhase 4
Half-dose r-SAK before heart stent procedure for heart attack
This trial tests whether a half-dose medicine called r-SAK given before a primary PCI heart stent procedure improves outcomes and safety in people with a specific type of heart attack. It may help the heart recover better, but it also checks the risk of side effects like bleeding.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT07684924Recruiting
Early FAPI PET/MRI after a heart attack
This study uses a new type of PET/MR scan (FAPI) to look at inflammation in the heart shortly after a heart attack. It may help doctors understand recovery better and guide future treatments.
AnkaraAges 18–90 - NCT07687576RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Comparing clot removal methods for heart attack patients
