Blood markers for heart attack patients
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial looks at two blood test results in people who have had a heart attack or unstable angina. It aims to see if these markers can help doctors understand the severity of the condition.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older.
- You have been diagnosed with a heart attack or unstable angina (a type of chest pain).
- You arrived at the hospital within 24 hours of your symptoms starting.
- You do not have an active infection or a long-term inflammatory disease.
- You do not have a blood disorder or cancer.
- You do not have severe liver or kidney failure.

This study looks at how blood vessel aging relates to the type of fatty buildup in your arteries that can cause heart attacks. If you've had a recent heart attack, chest pain (angina), or minor artery disease and do not have advanced heart failure, kidney failure, active cancer, or prior bypass surgery, you may be able to join.
This study is looking for people who have had a heart attack or have heart failure to discover new markers in your blood that could help doctors better understand and treat heart disease. By collecting samples and health data, researchers hope to find clues that improve care for future patients.
This study looks at blood “biomarkers” (signals in blood tests) in people who arrive with symptoms that could be a heart attack. It may help doctors spot and manage acute heart problems sooner and more accurately.
This study looks at blood test “markers” soon after an acute heart attack, to better understand heart damage and whether heart failure is present. It may help doctors improve how they monitor recovery and risk in people after a heart attack.
This study looks at how certain markers in your blood and heart tissue relate to heart attacks and how the heart heals afterward. If you qualify, researchers will take blood samples and check your heart function to better understand recovery.
This study is checking if a simple blood test (hs-CRP to albumin ratio) can help predict outcomes in people who have had a heart attack or unstable angina but are not getting an immediate balloon/stent procedure. It aims to use inflammation markers to guide better care.
