New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT05353946Recruiting
Rotational atherectomy elective vs emergency for heavily calcified blockages
This trial compares doing a special procedure (rotational atherectomy) before an emergency is needed versus using it as a rescue during a heart artery procedure. It is designed for people with very hard, calcified artery blockages and long-term kidney impairment, to see which approach works better and is safer.
MadridAges 18–100 - NCT05554588Recruiting
Thrombus-finding treatments for heart attack during angioplasty
This trial compares two ways to remove or break up a blood clot during emergency heart artery opening (primary PCI) for a specific type of heart attack (STEMI). It may help patients with a high clot burden by testing whether one approach works better than the other to improve outcomes.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT05841745Recruiting
Registry of robotic heart procedure for blocked coronary arteries
This registry collects real-world information about people having a robotic-assisted heart procedure (PCI) for blocked coronary arteries. It may help doctors understand how well this approach works for different heart conditions.
AalstAges 18 years+ - NCT05923489Recruiting
Follow-up angiography after stent placement in high-risk patients
This study checks how routine repeat heart blood-vessel imaging (angiography) after stent placement may help high-risk patients. It is meant for people who had a successful stent procedure and have certain higher-risk heart features.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT06567938Recruiting
Heart artery procedure study for people with kidney disease
This trial uses a special ultrasound camera inside the heart's arteries to guide stent placement for people with chronic kidney disease. The goal is to see if this approach improves outcomes compared to standard methods.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18 years+ - NCT06779110Recruiting
OCT vs. X-ray guidance for treating re-blocked stents
This study compares the standard X-ray guidance (angiography) with a more detailed imaging test (OCT) to guide treatment for a re-blocked stent. It aims to see which method leads to better outcomes for patients with in-stent renarrowing.
Aosta, AostaAges 18–99 - NCT07386418Recruiting
Angina thresholds study for patients needing stent treatment
This trial is testing a new way to measure blood flow in the heart during exercise to better understand angina. You may be eligible if you have at least two blocked heart arteries and are scheduled for stent placement.
BasildonAges 18 years+ - NCT05782777Recruiting
Cholesterol medicines after stent: combo pill vs single pill
This trial compares two cholesterol-lowering treatment plans after a heart procedure where new drug-eluting stents were placed: a combination of high-intensity statin plus ezetimibe versus high-intensity statin alone. It may help find which option lowers cholesterol more effectively and safely over the first year after the procedure.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT03667196Recruiting
Test opening blocked heart arteries using two different procedures
This trial studies whether two ways of threading a device to open a long-term blocked coronary artery are both safe and effective. You may qualify if you have a chronic total blockage and heart-related symptoms, and you can follow the study follow-up plan.
