It is for adults 35+ who are not already on advanced heart treatments.
This study is testing a new tool to help patients and doctors decide together on the best procedure (like stents or bypass surgery) for blocked heart arteries. It aims to make the decision process clearer and more personalized.
This study compares two ways of deciding on heart treatment for people with diabetes and blockages in all three main heart arteries. You'll be assigned by chance to either have a team of heart specialists discuss your case in real time (using an electronic system) or receive the usual way of making the decision, to see if one leads to better outcomes.
This study tests a way to help people with severe aortic stenosis make informed choices about treatment. It may help you talk with your heart team about options like valve replacement.
This study tests a tool that helps patients and doctors decide together which blood thinner treatment to use after a heart attack and stent placement, especially for people with higher bleeding risk.
