Study of frailty in heart patients receiving heart care
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial looks at “frailty,” meaning reduced strength and resilience, in older adults with coronary artery disease who are getting heart care. It may help doctors better understand which patients are more at risk and how care decisions could be improved.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are age 65 or older
- You have coronary artery disease and symptoms (not just a history)
- Your heart condition is one of these types: stable, unstable, NSTEMI, or STEMI
- You can give written informed consent (agree to participate in writing)

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how “frailty” (lower strength and resilience) and “pre-frailty” change over time in older adults who live at home. It may help researchers understand what factors affect aging and strength, so future care can start earlier.
This study looks at whether frailty can help predict the risk of bleeding in older adults who have had a heart attack. If you are over 65 and have had a recent heart attack, this trial may help researchers understand how to better prevent bleeding complications.
This study tests a program to reduce frailty in older adults with stable coronary artery disease. The goal is to improve strength and well-being in people who are not having recent heart problems.
This trial tests a special care program for people with both frailty (being weak or vulnerable) and heart failure (when the heart doesn't pump well). The program brings together different types of support to help you manage your health better after a hospital stay.
This trial studies a new tool that helps doctors measure “frailty” in older adults who are hospitalized. It may help hospitals identify risks earlier and tailor care for seniors who are more vulnerable.
This study tests a community-based health intervention for older adults who are showing early signs of frailty. It aims to see if social and community support can help improve your strength and health.
