Heart Treatment Combined With Mindfulness for Chest Pain
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a combination of a heart procedure and mindfulness-based therapy for patients with coronary heart disease who have chest pain and blockages that weren't fully treated. The goal is to see if adding mindfulness therapy alongside standard care improves symptoms and heart function.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have coronary heart disease (blocked heart arteries) with at least one serious blockage (>90%) that wasn't completely treated
- You experience chest pain or angina (chest tightness, shortness of breath) at rest or during activity
- Your heart function and kidney function meet minimum safety levels
- You do not have uncontrolled high blood pressure, serious heart rhythm problems, or active cancer
- You can hear well enough to participate in mindfulness therapy sessions

This trial tests if combining a new heart procedure with a special type of therapy called mindfulness therapy can help prevent heart problems in people with coronary artery disease that could not be fully fixed with stents or surgery.
This study looks at how to personalize treatment for people with angina (chest pain) by measuring how well blood flows through the heart’s small vessels and the main arteries during a procedure. It may help doctors choose the right approach after your coronary angiography (heart artery imaging).
This trial tests whether a non-invasive heart mapping technique can guide treatment for stable coronary artery disease, potentially avoiding more expensive or invasive tests. You may join if you have stable angina and a blockage of 50-90% in a major heart artery.
This study tests a structured mindfulness program (MBCT-T) to help people who have elevated stress and/or mild anxiety or depression in the setting of heart disease or heart risk factors. It may help improve emotional well-being and stress levels while you live with these health concerns.
This trial studies how well different heart tests (imaging the blood flow and measuring blood pressure in the heart) work for people with stable chest pain. It may help guide safer, more accurate evaluation when you are not having a heart attack.
This trial tests whether a small pressure-reducing device placed in a heart vein (the coronary sinus) can reduce symptoms in people with ongoing chest pain from tiny blood vessel problems. It is for angina that has not improved despite standard heart medicines, and only if special heart tests show reversible reduced blood flow.
