Test heart procedure planning in women using pressure measurements
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial compares two strategies for deciding which heart blockages to treat, using special pressure and blood-flow measurements during a heart procedure. It may help doctors choose more accurate treatment by tailoring the plan to each person’s heart blood flow.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman age 18 or older
- Your doctor suspects reduced blood flow to the heart or a recent heart-related event
- You are scheduled for a non-invasive heart imaging test and a diagnostic heart catheterization
- Your heart condition is one where treatment with PCI (opening blocked arteries) is considered
- You can safely receive medicines used to increase blood flow during testing (adenosine or regadenoson)

This trial studies a heart CT scan technique to help doctors better understand coronary artery blockages. It may help guide treatment choices for people with angina (chest pain) who are at intermediate to high risk.
This study compares two advanced imaging methods (IVUS and FFR) to see which better identifies blockages that need treatment. It may help doctors decide the best care for people with chest pain or recent heart attacks.
This trial is testing whether a special heart CT scan (coronary CT angiography) can help doctors better understand and treat calcium buildup in your heart arteries. If you have a type of heart disease that might need a stent or other procedure, this study could help decide the best approach.
This study checks how severely blocked a coronary artery is using measurements taken during a planned heart catheterization, to help guide whether and how to do a stent (PCI). It may help doctors choose the best treatment plan for people with about 70% or more narrowing.
This trial tests a new imaging technique called μFR to help doctors decide which blockages in your heart arteries need treatment after you've had a heart attack. It may help identify which blockages are most dangerous and need fixing soon versus those that can wait.
This trial studies how well different heart tests (imaging the blood flow and measuring blood pressure in the heart) work for people with stable chest pain. It may help guide safer, more accurate evaluation when you are not having a heart attack.
