Lugano, Canton TicinoAges 18 years+ - NCT07072026Recruiting
Opening blocked arteries in the brain long after stroke
This trial looks back at patients who had a procedure to reopen a major artery in the brain that had been blocked for a long time. It will help doctors learn if this treatment is safe and effective for people with chronic blockages in certain key arteries.
EssenAges 18 years+ - NCT07068789Recruiting
Leg Artery Bypass: One vs. Multiple Vessels for Severe Limb Threat
This trial compares opening up one versus multiple blood vessels below the knee to improve blood flow in people with severe leg pain or wounds. It aims to find the best approach to save the limb and improve quality of life.
Sohag, Sohag GovernorateAges 40 years+ - NCT06984731Recruiting
Same-day ablation and WATCHMAN closure for AFib
This study tests whether doing a common AFib procedure (radiofrequency ablation) is safe and effective at the same time as closing off the left atrial appendage with the WATCHMAN FLX device. It's for people with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation who are already candidates for both treatments.
Nantong, JiangsuAges 18–80 - 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 - NCT07023965Enrolling by invitation
Long-term follow-up study for gene therapy in critical limb ischemia
This study follows up with people who previously took part in a clinical trial testing an experimental gene therapy for critical limb ischemia (severe leg pain or sores due to blocked arteries). It aims to see how well the treatment works over time. If you were in that earlier trial and received at least one dose, joining this follow-up could help researchers learn more about the therapy's lasting effects.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 20–85 - NCT07016854Recruiting
Early treatment for blocked carotid artery stroke
This trial tests whether early treatment (using a catheter to open the blocked artery) can help people with a stroke caused by a blockage in the internal carotid artery. The goal is to improve recovery and reduce disability.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT07010354Recruiting
BeFlow Stent Study for Iliac Artery Blockages
This study is testing a new stent called BeFlow to see how well it works and how safe it is for people with blocked or narrowed iliac arteries. The stent is placed permanently to keep the artery open.
AalstAges 18 years+ - NCT07013344Recruiting
Link between NT-proBNP and heart artery disease
This study looks at a blood test called NT-proBNP to see if it can help predict how much blockage is in the heart's arteries. It may help doctors better understand heart disease risk.
Milan, ItalyAges 18 years+ - NCT07002372Recruiting
Watching a video before your first eye injection
This study tests whether watching a short video before your first eye injection helps you feel more at ease. It is for people who have never had this injection before.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT07002476RecruitingPhase 3
Early aggressive cholesterol-lowering after stroke with clot removal
This trial tests whether quickly starting an aggressive cholesterol-lowering treatment after a stroke improves recovery. It is for people who are about to have a procedure to remove a large blood clot from their brain.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT06988774Recruiting
Checking fallopian tube openness during fibroid surgery
This study checks if blue dye can safely travel through your fallopian tubes during a fibroid-removal surgery. It helps doctors understand if the fallopian tubes are open (not blocked) while you are already having a procedure to remove fibroids.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06400290Recruiting
Balloon test to find which artery causes chest pain
This study tests a new way to find which blocked heart arteries are causing your chest pain. During a stent procedure, doctors will briefly block each artery to see which one triggers your symptoms. This might help them decide which blockages to treat.
BasildonAges 18 years+ - NCT06948162Recruiting
Dental MRI for routine dental care
This study tests whether a special MRI machine can take detailed images of teeth and jaws for routine dental care. It may help find problems without using X-rays.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06940128Recruiting
Ischemic conditioning after stroke clot removal
