Angiography Analysis for Predicting Stent Outcomes
Part of Heart & circulation, Pain clinical trials.
This study looks at whether information from your heart X-rays can help predict how well you do after getting a stent. It is for people who have already had a successful stent placement guided by a special camera (OCT) and want to help doctors learn more.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 84 years old.
- Your stent was placed successfully using OCT (a camera inside your artery).
- Your doctor has at least two clear X-ray images of your artery taken from different angles after the stent was placed.
- Your procedure was not for a sudden, complete heart attack (STEMI).
- You did not have severe heart failure (NYHA class III-IV) before the procedure, and your heart's pumping strength was above 30%.
- You have not had open-heart bypass surgery (CABG) in the past.
- The blocked artery being treated is at least 2.5 mm wide.

This study looks at reasons doctors may or may not use a special camera inside the heart arteries (called OCT or IVUS) during a procedure to open blocked arteries. It may help understand how to improve care for people with complex blockages.
This trial tests whether implanting stents in non-obstructive, high-risk plaques (thin-capped fatty plaques) can prevent future heart attacks. It is for people who have already had treatment for a recent heart attack or unstable angina and have additional plaques that are not severely blocking blood flow but are vulnerable.
This trial uses special imaging (OCT or IVUS) to look at other blockages in your heart arteries that weren't treated during your stent procedure. It helps doctors decide if those blockages might need treatment later.
This trial uses a type of imaging called OCT to look inside heart arteries and help doctors decide the best treatment for people with certain types of coronary heart disease. It aims to see if this advanced imaging can improve outcomes.
This study compares the standard X-ray guidance (angiography) with a more detailed imaging test (OCT) to guide treatment for a re-blocked stent. It aims to see which method leads to better outcomes for patients with in-stent renarrowing.
This study compares two ways of guiding a heart stent procedure: using information from a special angiography scan versus using standard practice. It may help your care team choose the best treatment to improve heart outcomes after stenting.
