Follow-up angiography after stent placement in high-risk patients
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study checks how routine repeat heart blood-vessel imaging (angiography) after stent placement may help high-risk patients. It is meant for people who had a successful stent procedure and have certain higher-risk heart features.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are at least 18 years old.
- You had a successful stent procedure (PCI) and have at least two high-risk features (from the list).
- You are not pregnant and not breastfeeding.
- You are not planning another new procedure to open blocked vessels soon.
- You can sign a written informed consent form (or your legal representative can).

This study compares two ways of guiding a heart stent procedure: using information from a special angiography scan versus using standard practice. It may help your care team choose the best treatment to improve heart outcomes after stenting.
This trial tests whether a CT scan of the heart arteries is a safe and effective alternative to standard follow-up tests in people who have had a stent or drug-coated balloon placed in a high-risk coronary artery. It may help reduce the need for additional invasive procedures.
This trial tests whether placing a stent early in heart arteries with dangerous-looking plaques (sticky buildups) helps prevent heart attacks. You'll be monitored closely with heart imaging to see if early intervention is safer than watching and waiting.
This study follows people who need a heart procedure to open narrowed coronary arteries using a drug-coated stent. It aims to see how well these stents work and how people do in everyday clinical practice.
This study looks at whether choosing blood thinners based on each person's needs works better than a standard approach after getting a heart stent. It aims to reduce risks like blood clots or bleeding.
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.
