This study tests a personalized education program for people who have had a heart attack and are at high risk of returning to the hospital. The program helps you understand your condition and how to take care of yourself after leaving the hospital, which may lower your chances of a second heart attack or readmission.
This study looks at people who had emergency heart catheterization (a procedure to examine heart arteries) to better understand heart disease. It may help researchers develop new ways to prevent and treat heart attacks.
This trial tests whether a structured physical exercise plan can help people recover and stay healthier after a heart attack. It is designed for people who can safely be active and are not already doing as much exercise as the program requires.
This study follows people after an acute heart attack (AMI) to learn what care is used and what outcomes happen over time. Your information may help doctors optimize how heart attack care is delivered in the future.
This trial tests different ways to manage and reduce the risk of future heart problems in people who have already had a heart attack or a procedure to open blocked heart arteries. The goal is to find the best long-term treatment plan to keep you healthy.
This study looks at people who have had a heart attack and were treated with a procedure to open blocked heart arteries. The goal is to find better ways to predict who might have serious problems afterward, so doctors can help prevent them.
