MoscowAges 18 years+ - NCT04347434RecruitingPhase 4
Long-term cholesterol medicines after heart attack
This trial studies how well long-term cholesterol-lowering treatment works in people who recently had a heart attack (STEMI or NSTEMI). It may help your care team understand which patients benefit most and how treatment should be continued safely.
PenzaAges 30–70 - NCT04416581RecruitingPhase 4
Compare two stomach-protecting medicines to prevent bleeding
This trial compares a potassium-competitive acid blocker to a proton pump inhibitor to help prevent stomach or intestinal bleeding in people at high risk who take blood-thinning medicines. It may help reduce dangerous GI bleeding while you stay on heart/stroke medicines.
AnyangAges 19 years+ - NCT04431609Recruiting
Study for carotid web-related stroke or TIA
This study looks at people who have had a stroke (cerebral infarction) or a warning episode (TIA) caused by a specific shape in a neck artery called a carotid web. The trial uses expert review of your imaging to confirm the cause and asks for your consent to be followed in a study group.
BordeauxAges 18 years+ - NCT04440761Recruiting
Registry for people with MINOCA heart-related chest pain
This is a research registry that collects information from people diagnosed with MINOCA (a specific type of heart-related injury). It may help researchers better understand causes and outcomes for this condition.
LondonAges 16 years+ - NCT04448639Recruiting
Compare Takotsubo and heart attack during early heart scans
This trial looks at people with either a heart attack pattern called STEMI or a temporary heart condition called Takotsubo (stress-related heart weakness). It compares what is found during a planned heart artery scan (coronary angiography) within 12 hours, which may help doctors understand and manage these conditions sooner.
GothenburgAges Any age - NCT04458883Recruiting
Cardiac MRI test in people with prior heart attack
This study uses special heart MRI scans to improve how heart images are made and interpreted. You may be asked to undergo MRI testing to help compare scans in people with a past heart attack and healthy volunteers.
Aberdeen, AberdeenshireAges 20 years+ - NCT04465591Recruiting
Study of troponin fragments after heart muscle injury
This study looks at a specific lab pattern (“troponin fragmentation”) in blood samples taken from people after a heart muscle injury. It may help researchers understand the injury better and improve how it’s measured.
Turku, Southwest FinlandAges 18 years+ - NCT04499859RecruitingPhase 4
Low-dose cholesterol medicines versus high-dose after heart attack
This study compares two cholesterol treatment approaches after a heart attack: a lower dose combination versus a higher dose single medicine. It aims to see which option works well and is tolerable for people after a treated heart attack.
Bucheon-si, GyeonggidoAges 19 years+ - NCT04521699Recruiting
CalmiGo stress device to improve heart blood vessel health
This study looks at whether a stress-management device (CalmiGo) can improve blood vessel function and heart disease risk in people recovering from recent heart procedures. You would use the device for 12 weeks and complete questionnaires, blood tests, and a heart-vessel test at the start and end.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT04573660Recruiting
Registry for people using Abbott vascular devices
This is a patient registry that collects health information from adults who get Abbott vascular devices during a planned procedure. It helps Abbott and doctors understand how these devices perform in everyday care.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT04576130Recruiting
ICD study after cardiac arrest from an abnormal heart rhythm
This study looks at an implantable defibrillator (ICD) strategy in people who survived a cardiac arrest caused by an abnormal rhythm (ventricular fibrillation or ventricular tachycardia). It aims to reduce the risk of another dangerous rhythm after the blocked heart arteries are fully treated.
CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT04672551Recruiting
EMDR therapy for PTSD after a heart attack
This trial studies whether EMDR (a structured therapy that helps process distressing memories) can reduce PTSD symptoms in people who developed PTSD after a cardiac event. It may help you feel less overwhelmed by memories and stress related to the heart event.
