Studying chest pain after successful heart stent procedure
Part of Heart & circulation, Pain clinical trials.
This study looks at why some people still have chest pain (angina) even after a successful heart stent procedure (PCI). You will have a heart MRI (stress CMR) before the stent procedure, and doctors will measure blood flow in your heart arteries during and after the procedure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have angina (chest pain) based on a heart health questionnaire (SAQ-7 score less than 90)
- You are scheduled for a stress heart MRI (stress CMR) before your stent procedure
- You are going to have a heart stent procedure (PCI) that is expected to be successful
- Doctors will measure blood flow in your heart arteries during and after the stent procedure
- You have not had a heart attack within the last 30 days
- Your stent procedure will happen within 90 days of your stress heart MRI

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial is testing a new way to measure blood flow in the heart during exercise to better understand angina. You may be eligible if you have at least two blocked heart arteries and are scheduled for stent placement.
This study tests a detailed diagnostic procedure during heart catheterization for patients who previously had stents placed and now have chest pain or signs of heart stress. The goal is to better understand blood flow in treated arteries to guide treatment decisions.
This study uses a special stress heart MRI to measure blood flow and find blockages in the arteries that supply your heart. It is for people with chest pain or abnormal EKG results who have risk factors for heart disease, to help doctors diagnose and treat coronary artery disease more accurately.
This study looks at arteries in the heart that aren't the one that caused the heart attack. It uses a special CT scan to understand these arteries better in people who have already had a procedure to open the blocked artery.
This study tests a new way to find which blocked heart arteries are causing your chest pain. During a stent procedure, doctors will briefly block each artery to see which one triggers your symptoms. This might help them decide which blockages to treat.
This study tests whether a special type of heart ultrasound can help people recover better after getting a stent for blocked heart arteries. It may be a good fit for people who are having their first stent procedure and do not have other major health issues like diabetes or recent infections.
