Study of remote robot-assisted heart stent placement
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a doctor can use a robot to place a heart stent while being in a different location. It is designed for people who need a stent to open a blocked heart artery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You need a planned stent procedure for a blocked heart artery.
- The blockage is severe (at least 70% narrowed) or moderate (at least 50%) with proof it affects your heart.
- The artery size is between 2.5 mm and 4.0 mm wide.
- The blockage is short enough to be covered by one stent.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding, and do not plan to become pregnant during the study.

This trial tests if using advanced imaging (like OCT or IVUS) to guide placement of a newer type of stent (bioresorbable scaffold) can reduce future stent problems. It is for people with stable coronary artery disease who need a stent in a main heart artery.
This trial tests whether a new artificial intelligence tool called Medipixel XA can help doctors place stents more precisely in blocked heart arteries. If you have coronary artery disease and need a stent, this study could be an option.
This trial is testing a new robotic system, R-Star, to help doctors perform minimally invasive procedures to open blocked heart arteries. It may offer a more precise treatment option for people with coronary artery disease who need a stent.
This study tests a robotic system to help doctors place stents in blocked heart arteries. It may offer a less invasive and more precise treatment option.
This trial is testing a robotic system to help with a procedure that opens blocked heart arteries. If you need a stent and fit the criteria, you may be able to join.
This study tests a robotic system to help doctors perform a procedure (PCI/angioplasty) to open blocked heart arteries. You may be eligible if you need this procedure and your anatomy is suitable, and if you can give informed consent.
