FFR-guided heart procedure study for coronary artery narrowing
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study follows people who have narrowed heart arteries and have a pressure test (FFR) to guide treatment. It may help doctors understand the course of disease when using FFR and choosing a minimally invasive approach.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are age 35 or older
- You have had an FFR pressure measurement done on at least one narrowed heart artery
- You can agree to the study by signing informed consent
- Your narrowed artery blood flow is not severely reduced (TIMI less than 3 flow is excluded)
- Your heart pumping strength (ejection fraction) is 30% or higher
- You are not planning major heart surgery or major non-heart surgery during the study

This trial uses a special pressure wire called RFR to help doctors decide whether a stent is needed for a moderate heart artery blockage. It aims to make sure only the blockages that really need treatment get stented, which may reduce unnecessary procedures.
This study looks at a specific heart blood-flow measurement taken during a coronary procedure to see how well it predicts future outcomes. If you had a successful pressure measurement called FFR with a tracing, your results may be analyzed to understand risk and prognosis.
This trial compares two imaging and pressure tests used during stent placement to see which helps improve blood flow better in people with chest pain or a recent heart attack.
This study compares two pressure-based methods (Vessel-FFR vs standard FFR) to decide how severe a heart artery narrowing is during a coronary angiogram or PCI. It may help patients and doctors choose which narrowings need treatment more accurately.
This trial compares two ways to decide how to treat a narrowed “left main” coronary artery: a pressure-based test (FFR) versus standard X-ray imaging (angiography). It aims to see which approach better helps choose safe, appropriate treatment using a stent when appropriate.
This trial studies whether a special heart “pressure/flow ratio” test (measured during the procedure) can help doctors choose the best plan for coronary bypass surgery. It may improve how bypass targets the problem blood vessels, but only if certain heart and health factors fit the study rules.
