Frailty and bleeding risk in heart attack patients over 65
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at whether frailty can help predict the risk of bleeding in older adults who have had a heart attack. If you are over 65 and have had a recent heart attack, this trial may help researchers understand how to better prevent bleeding complications.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 66 years or older.
- You have had a recent heart attack (either STEMI or NSTEMI).
- You are willing to take part in the study.
- You have not died in the hospital from a cause unrelated to bleeding.
