3-vessel ultrasound flow study in heart disease patients
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial uses a special ultrasound to measure blood flow in three main heart arteries. It may help doctors better understand blockages and improve treatment planning.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have chest pain (stable or unstable angina) or had a heart attack and are past the initial recovery phase.
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have blockages of at least 30% in all three major heart arteries (confirmed by angiogram).
- You have had a successful balloon or stent procedure (PCI) to open a blocked artery before joining the study.
- You have not had heart bypass surgery (CABG).
- You do not have severe heart failure or serious kidney problems.

This study uses advanced imaging techniques to look at the build-up inside heart arteries in people with stable angina. It aims to help doctors understand and treat these blockages more accurately.
This trial uses special imaging to look at how blood flows through the heart's arteries. It aims to see if certain blood flow patterns can predict where harmful plaque (fatty buildups) may grow, which could help prevent future heart problems.
This study compares two advanced imaging methods (IVUS and FFR) to see which better identifies blockages that need treatment. It may help doctors decide the best care for people with chest pain or recent heart attacks.
This study tests whether using ultrasound inside the heart arteries during the initial emergency procedure can safely treat all blockages at once, so you may not need a second hospital visit. It aims to simplify your care after a heart attack by combining diagnosis and treatment.
This study will look at how using a special ultrasound (IVUS) during a heart procedure (PCI) can help people with complex blockages, such as heavy calcium or multiple narrowings. It aims to see if this approach improves outcomes.
This trial is testing whether a special heart CT scan (coronary CT angiography) can help doctors better understand and treat calcium buildup in your heart arteries. If you have a type of heart disease that might need a stent or other procedure, this study could help decide the best approach.
