Better heart attack risk prediction study
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study aims to improve how doctors predict future health problems in people who have had a heart attack. It will look at a wide range of health factors to create a more accurate risk score.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been hospitalized for a heart attack or unstable angina and received treatment with a catheter procedure.
- You have at least two of the following risk factors: age over 65, diabetes, heart disease in multiple vessels, clogged leg arteries, chronic kidney disease, prior stroke or mini-stroke, prior heart attack, complex stent procedure, prior bypass surgery, heart failure, BMI over 27, need for a blood thinner, low red blood cell count, recent bleeding event requiring transfusion, a bleeding disorder, current cancer (except skin cancer), or previous bleeding in the brain.
- You are 18 years or older.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You are able to understand and follow study procedures.

This study helps doctors identify which heart attack survivors with moderate heart weakness are at highest risk of sudden cardiac death. Researchers will collect health information and heart imaging over 5 years to find early warning signs.
This study builds a better way to predict serious problems after a heart attack stenting procedure. It looks at your medical data to help doctors understand your risk and improve your care.
This study tests whether a smartphone app can predict your real-time risk of a heart attack or stroke. You wear a smartwatch for 18 months, and the app uses your health data to help you and your doctor manage your heart health.
This study aims to build a risk model for acute myocardial infarction (heart attack) in people with existing heart artery disease and additional risk factors. It may help identify who is at higher risk and could benefit from closer monitoring or earlier treatment.
This study uses a computer model to predict the risk of future heart problems in people who have had a heart attack and received a stent (PCI). The goal is to identify patients who might benefit from closer monitoring or extra treatment.
This study looks at blood tests and heart function after a first heart attack (STEMI) treated with emergency stenting. Researchers want to see if certain molecules in the blood can predict future heart problems.
