Guiding Heart Stents in Diabetes Patients
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial compares two ways to guide heart stent placement in people with diabetes. One method uses a special camera inside the artery (IVI), the other uses standard X-ray pictures. The goal is to see which leads to better outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You have been diagnosed with diabetes.
- You are scheduled to have a heart stent placed (a procedure called PCI).
- You have no history of open-heart bypass surgery (CABG).
- You do not have severe kidney disease or other major health issues that would make the trial unsafe.

This study uses an AI system that combines different heart imaging tests to help doctors plan stenting for complex narrowed arteries. It aims to improve how well the stent is placed and to make the procedure safer and more effective.
This study compares two methods of placing a stent in a blocked heart artery after a recent heart attack. One method uses a special ultrasound called IVUS to guide placement, while the other uses standard X-ray imaging. The goal is to see which one leads to better recovery and fewer complications.
This trial compares two ways to guide a procedure to reopen a stent that has narrowed again: using a special camera inside the artery (IVUS) versus standard X-ray (angiography). It aims to see which approach works better for people who have a drug-eluting stent that is narrowing for the first time.
This study compares two ways to restore blood flow to the heart—stent placement (PCI) versus bypass surgery (CABG)—in people with diabetes and significant multi-vessel coronary artery disease. It looks at outcomes using both standard heart tests and additional imaging/functional measurements to guide the best revascularization strategy.
This trial compares two ways doctors place heart stents in patients having a heart attack or unstable chest pain. One method uses ultrasound imaging inside the artery (IVUS), and the other uses standard X-ray imaging. The goal is to see which approach leads to better outcomes.
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.
