Study genetics in people with spontaneous artery tears
This study looks for genetic (inherited) reasons some people develop SCAD, a sudden tear in a heart artery. It compares people with SCAD to people without it and may help doctors recognize risk and causes.
Ages Any age - NCT01427179Recruiting
Studying genes in families affected by SCAD
This study looks at genetic (inherited) causes of spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) in families. It may help researchers understand why SCAD happens and how it could be prevented or identified earlier in others.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT07497633Enrolling by invitation
SCAD study at Mayo Clinic
This study is for people who have a scheduled appointment at Mayo Clinic for SCAD (a tear in a heart artery). It looks at how SCAD affects people over time, and why it happens.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18–99 - NCT05699200Recruiting
Study of nerves involved in spontaneous coronary artery dissection
This study looks at how the body’s automatic “fight-or-flight” nerve system may relate to spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD). If you have a SCAD history, your results may help researchers understand the condition better; if you’re a healthy control, your data are compared to SCAD patients.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06955663Recruiting
Exercise and support for women after SCAD
This trial tests whether a personalized exercise and support program can help women recover better after a spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD). If you are a woman with SCAD and stable heart function, this program may improve your strength, confidence, and quality of life.
Leicester, LeicestershireAges 18 years+ - NCT06601270Recruiting
SCAD registry: tracking spontaneous coronary artery dissection
This study collects information from people diagnosed with spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) in the last 10 years. It aims to learn more about this rare heart condition to improve future care.
Buenos AiresAges 18 years+ - NCT07178509Recruiting
Heart artery study using stress ultrasound
This study uses a stress echocardiogram (ultrasound of the heart during exercise or medicine) to look at blood flow in people who have had a spontaneous tear in a heart artery (SCAD) and in healthy volunteers. It aims to learn more about how SCAD affects the heart.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT03398850Recruiting
Study of coronary artery dissection cases in Brazil
This trial looks at patients who had a specific heart blood-vessel problem called spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD). Doctors are reviewing confirmed cases to better understand how SCAD is identified in real-world patients.
São Paulo, São PauloAges Any age - NCT04906356Recruiting
Study of SCAD after a heart attack or unstable chest pain
This study looks at people admitted with a recent heart event (STEMI, NSTEMI, or unstable angina) and who were found to have SCAD on a heart scan. It may help doctors better understand and manage SCAD after these urgent events.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07526766Recruiting
Exercise Program for Heart Artery Dissection and Fibromuscular Dysplasia
This study tests whether a supervised exercise program is safe and helpful for people who have had a spontaneous tear in a heart artery (SCAD) or fibromuscular dysplasia (a condition affecting blood vessel walls). The goal is to see if exercise can improve heart health after recovery from these conditions.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 21–65 - NCT07317323Recruiting
Norwegian study on spontaneous coronary artery dissection
This trial is for people who have had a spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD), a tear in a heart artery. It aims to learn more about this condition and how to treat it.
BergenAges 18 years+ - NCT01429727Recruiting
Virtual registry for recent SCAD patients at Mayo Clinic
This study is a virtual registry (a way to collect and track real-world health information) for people diagnosed with SCAD at Mayo Clinic. It may help researchers better understand SCAD in groups that are often underrepresented and in urgent, recent cases.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT01967511Recruiting
Study to better understand fibromuscular dysplasia
This trial studies people with fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) and related conditions to learn what causes them and how they behave over time. You may also be able to join if you are a healthy person matched by age and gender to help compare results.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07529691Recruiting
Physical Activity and Quality of Life in Fibromuscular Dysplasia
This study asks people with fibromuscular dysplasia (an artery condition) about their physical activity and how they're doing in daily life. The information helps doctors understand how the condition affects people's wellbeing and exercise ability.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18–100 - NCT06101862Recruiting
CT scan vs. angiogram for certain heart attacks
This trial compares two ways to look at heart arteries: a CT scan (noninvasive) versus a traditional angiogram (a tube put into an artery). The goal is to see which is better for people having a certain type of heart attack.
Copenhagen, HellerupAges Any age - NCT05272618Recruiting
Testing heart vessel dysfunction after a heart attack
This trial looks at how to assess small blood-vessel (microvascular) problems in people who had a heart attack but whose main heart arteries are not blocked. It may help doctors better find what’s driving symptoms and choose the right tests and treatments.
Gwangju, GwangjuAges 19 years+ - NCT04814212Recruiting
Testing a drug-coated balloon for people with bleeding risk
This trial looks at whether a “drug-coated balloon” used during a heart procedure (PCI) is safer or better for people who are at higher risk of bleeding while on blood thinners. It may help reduce complications around the time of the procedure in people like you.
Jyväskylä, Central FinlandAges 18 years+ - NCT07422688Enrolling by invitation
Using light scans to find heart artery blockages
This trial uses a special light-based scan (optical coherence tomography, or OCT) to help doctors see inside your heart arteries and find the exact blockage causing your heart attack. It may help guide treatment more precisely.
GenkAges 18 years+ - NCT05426408Recruiting
Test study for heart attacks without blocked arteries
This study looks at people who may have MINOCA (heart attack symptoms with no major artery blockage) or takotsubo syndrome (a temporary stress-related heart condition). The goal is to better understand these causes and how they should be diagnosed and treated.
StockholmAges 35–79 - NCT06448637Recruiting
Drug balloon vs. medicated stent for large heart arteries
This study compares two treatments for new blockages in large heart arteries: a drug-coated balloon (a balloon that releases medicine) versus a drug-coated stent (a small mesh tube). The goal is to see which one better helps the artery stay open and function normally.
BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT04178434Recruiting
Online therapy for stress and anxiety after heart pain without blockages
This trial studies whether an internet-based therapy program can reduce stress and anxiety in people who may have heart-related conditions like MINOCA or takotsubo syndrome, but without significant coronary artery blockages. If you fit the mood and heart criteria, the program may help you feel calmer and improve day-to-day wellbeing.
StockholmAges 35–79 - NCT05701358Recruiting
Guiding heart stent decisions to fully treat blocked arteries after a heart attack
This trial compares two ways doctors decide which additional blocked heart arteries to treat with stents soon after a heart attack. It may help patients avoid later heart problems by testing a “complete revascularization” strategy planned after the initial culprit artery was treated.
