Genetic test to predict risks after heart surgery

Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.

This study looks for genetic (DNA) clues that may help predict side effects or complications after heart surgery. If you join, your genome information may be used to understand who is at higher risk and why.

Genetic risk test for heart disease prevention

This trial uses a polygenic risk score to see if knowing your genetic risk for coronary artery disease can help prevent a first heart attack. If you have an intermediate 10-year risk and no prior heart events, you may be eligible.

Genetic testing to study who develops heart failure during breast cancer therapy

This study uses DNA genetic testing to find DNA changes that might explain why some people develop heart failure (CHF) after breast cancer treatment with certain medicines. It may help researchers understand risk and improve care for future patients.

Using genetic test results to guide care during surgery

This study looks at whether using a person’s genetic information helps doctors make better decisions during planned surgery. It may help tailor care, but you would only join if you can consent and don’t have certain serious conditions.

Blood test to predict heart risk during planned surgery

This trial checks a blood test called NT-proBNP (a marker related to heart stress) to help predict outcomes after planned surgery. It may help doctors identify which patients are at higher risk so they can tailor monitoring and care.

Predicting problems after heart surgery with body markers

This study looks at different body markers (like genes, proteins, and voice patterns) to predict problems after heart surgery. If you are having planned heart surgery, you may be able to join and help doctors learn how to better prevent complications.
