Predicting cardiac arrest risk in heart disease patients
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at factors that may help predict sudden cardiac arrest in people with coronary artery disease. If you have a recent diagnosis of significant blockage or a heart attack, joining this trial could help improve risk assessment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 to 75 years old.
- You have had a heart attack or a confirmed blockage of more than 50% in your heart arteries within the past year.
- You are able to understand and sign the consent form.
- You do not have serious heart valve problems, a terminal illness, or a condition like dementia that make participation difficult.
- You are not currently taking part in another trial that affects your treatment.

This study is for people with coronary artery disease (blocked arteries in the heart) who live in the Pirkanmaa area of Finland. It will collect information and blood samples to better understand heart disease and sudden cardiac arrest.
This study is creating a simple scoring system to predict risk of sudden cardiac arrest. It's looking for people who already have a heart condition, so the test can be made more accurate for others like you.
This study uses a computer model of your heart to predict whether you might be at risk for dangerous heart rhythms after a recent heart attack. The goal is to help doctors identify who might need closer monitoring or preventive treatment.
This study looks at blood samples and CT scans from people with stable coronary artery disease to find new ways to predict and prevent future heart problems. If you've had or are about to have a cardiac CT and have blood stored, you might be able to join.
This trial uses heart MRI images and measurements to look for warning signs that could predict sudden cardiac death. It focuses on people with significantly reduced heart pumping function who are being considered for an ICD to prevent sudden death.
This study looks at how the heart's electrical signals can predict sudden cardiac arrest in people with a weakened heart muscle. It may help doctors identify who is at highest risk.
