Study heart blood flow during fast heart rates
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study measures how well blood flows through the heart when the heart rate is increased during a heart procedure. It may help doctors better understand coronary (heart artery) blood flow and how to guide treatment when you need angiography or angioplasty.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You can clearly agree to take part in the study
- You are scheduled for a coronary angiogram or angioplasty
- Your doctors think you can safely have the study measurements during the procedure
- You are not pregnant and not breastfeeding
- Your heart condition is not in an unstable or severe stage (as judged by your doctor)

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 tests a special heart scan that measures blood flow to the heart muscle. It may help doctors decide if your heart blockages need treatment or if medication is enough.
This trial checks if a new way of measuring blood flow during heart bypass surgery helps improve outcomes. It's for people having planned (not emergency) bypass surgery for certain types of chest pain or heart attack.
This study looks at the tiny blood vessels in your heart (the microcirculation) that can cause chest pain even when the main arteries are open. It aims to better understand and treat this type of chest pain, called chronic coronary syndrome.
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 uses a special MRI technique with carbon dioxide to check how well blood flows to your heart muscle. It might help doctors better understand blockages in the heart arteries.
