Study of stress, anxiety, and pain after heart attack
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how anxiety, stress, and pain may affect people after a heart attack. It may help researchers understand who could benefit from supportive strategies after myocardial infarction (heart attack).

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at blood test “markers” soon after an acute heart attack, to better understand heart damage and whether heart failure is present. It may help doctors improve how they monitor recovery and risk in people after a heart attack.
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.
This study follows people 18 and older who have had a specific type of heart attack (STEMI). It aims to better understand them using a heart MRI scan, which may help improve how these patients are evaluated and cared for.
This study looks at how immune cells change in the first few hours after a severe heart attack (STEMI) and how that relates to early scar healing. It may help doctors understand why some patients heal better than others.
This study follows people after an acute heart attack (AMI) to learn what care is used and what outcomes happen over time. Your information may help doctors optimize how heart attack care is delivered in the future.
This study looks at the lymphatic system and heart tissue after a heart attack (STEMI) in people who had prompt catheter treatment. It uses heart MRI to understand healing and may help researchers improve care after a heart attack.
