Microvascular dysfunction in angina patients
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests if chest pain with clear arteries is caused by tiny heart vessel problems. It may help find better treatments for patients whose arteries look normal on angiograms.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have stable chest pain or discomfort.
- You are scheduled for a heart catheterization (coronary angiogram).
- Your main heart arteries show no significant blockages (FFR greater than 0.80).
- You have not had a recent heart attack.
- You do not have serious valve disease or advanced kidney disease.
- You are willing and able to give written consent.

This study looks at why the tiny blood vessels in the heart don't work properly in people with angina (chest pain). It tests how blood flows through these vessels and asks you to exercise so we can learn more about your condition and potential treatments.
This study is collecting information about how well the tiny blood vessels in the heart work in people with chest pain. It helps doctors learn more about microcirculation problems and may lead to better treatments.
This study looks at how insulin resistance affects tiny heart arteries in people who have chest pain and signs of heart stress on tests, but do not have major blockages in their heart arteries. It aims to understand why some people have heart symptoms even when their main arteries appear clear.
This trial looks at how to assess small blood-vessel (microvascular) problems in people who had a heart attack but whose main heart arteries are not blocked. It may help doctors better find what’s driving symptoms and choose the right tests and treatments.
This trial tests a special wireless pressure catheter to see how well the tiny blood vessels in the heart are working. It may help people who have chest pain but don't have major blockages in their main heart arteries.
This registry study collects information from adults with microvascular angina (chest pain from small blood vessels in the heart). It may help researchers better understand how to assess and manage this condition over time.
