Study heart blood-flow measurements to predict outcomes in coronary disease
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be at least 20 years old
- You must have had a successful FFR pressure measurement during your heart catheter procedure, with a pullback tracing
- Your kidney function should not be severely reduced (eGFR 30 or higher)
- You should not have had a heart attack with ST-elevation within the last 72 hours
- You should not have major heart pump weakness (left ventricular ejection fraction under 30%)

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.
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 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.
This study is following people with chronic coronary syndrome to see how a special CT-based blood flow test (CT-FFR) helps predict their heart health. If you have already had this test, you may be eligible to join and help doctors learn more about managing your condition.
This study examines how a special measurement technique works when blood vessels are dilated during a heart imaging procedure. It may help doctors better assess whether narrowing in your heart arteries needs treatment.
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.
