Study of early risk signs after sudden death
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at tiny particles in the blood (exosomes) to see if they can help predict how patients do after a sudden collapse. The goal is to better understand who might recover and how to improve their care.

This study looks at young people who had a sudden cardiac arrest during sports. Doctors will check for genetic causes to help prevent future events in athletes and their families.
This study builds a registry and collection of samples to better understand families affected by sudden heart death and related heart rhythm problems that are not clearly caused by a heart attack. It may help researchers identify patterns and improve future care, and it offers a way for patients and families to contribute to research.
This study is creating a simple scoring system to predict risk of sudden cardiac arrest. It's looking for people who already have a heart condition, so the test can be made more accurate for others like you.
This study looks at factors that may help predict sudden cardiac arrest in people with coronary artery disease. If you have a recent diagnosis of significant blockage or a heart attack, joining this trial could help improve risk assessment.
This study is for people with coronary artery disease (blocked arteries in the heart) who live in the Pirkanmaa area of Finland. It will collect information and blood samples to better understand heart disease and sudden cardiac arrest.
This trial collects and studies medical information and tissue from people who died suddenly with no clear cause, aiming to better identify hidden heart- and clot-related causes. It may help researchers improve how sudden deaths are investigated in the future.
