Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT04549896Recruiting
CT scan study for complex blocked heart artery procedures
This trial studies how a CT scan may help plan a procedure to open a long-standing blocked coronary artery (a chronic total occlusion). It is aimed at people with complex, difficult blockages and symptoms or heart test results showing parts of the heart may still be alive.
OllioulesAges 18–90 - NCT07707427Recruiting
Comparing two guidewires for twisted wrist arteries during heart tests
This trial compares two different types of thin wires (guidewires) used during a coronary angiogram to see which one works better when your wrist artery has a twist or loop. The goal is to make the procedure smoother and safer for people with this common variation.
PátraiAges 18 years+ - NCT07471867RecruitingPhase 4
Testing a new stomach medicine for heart patients on clopidogrel
This trial tests if a new stomach acid medicine (Zastaprazan) affects how well clopidogrel works in heart patients who have had a stent placed. It aims to help people who need both clopidogrel and a stomach acid drug after a procedure.
Yongin-si, Gyeonggi-doAges 19 years+ - NCT06984406Recruiting
Beet product for kidney protection during heart procedure
This trial tests a beet-derived food product (a natural source of nitrate) to see if it can help prevent kidney damage caused by the contrast dye used during a heart procedure called PCI. It is designed for people who already have a higher risk of this kidney problem.
MoscowAges 18 years+ - NCT07446023Recruiting
Testing a new way to measure heart artery blockages
This study compares two advanced imaging methods (IVUS and FFR) to see which better identifies blockages that need treatment. It may help doctors decide the best care for people with chest pain or recent heart attacks.
