Exercise Program for Heart Artery Dissection and Fibromuscular Dysplasia
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests whether a supervised exercise program is safe and helpful for people who have had a spontaneous tear in a heart artery (SCAD) or fibromuscular dysplasia (a condition affecting blood vessel walls). The goal is to see if exercise can improve heart health after recovery from these conditions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had a spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) or fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD)—a tear or weakness in heart or artery walls
- At least 2 months have passed since your event, and you are no longer having chest pain
- You are able to exercise without major musculoskeletal (bone, joint, muscle) or other health limitations
- Your body mass index (BMI) is below 36—roughly, your weight is proportionate to your height
- You are medically stable and able to follow the study's exercise plan
- You are not currently pregnant

This study tests whether a supervised exercise program is safe and helpful for people who have had a spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD), a tear in a heart artery. It may help improve your recovery and heart health.
This trial tests whether a personalized exercise and support program can help women recover better after a spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD). If you are a woman with SCAD and stable heart function, this program may improve your strength, confidence, and quality of life.
This trial studies people with fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) and related conditions to learn what causes them and how they behave over time. You may also be able to join if you are a healthy person matched by age and gender to help compare results.
This study asks people with fibromuscular dysplasia (an artery condition) about their physical activity and how they're doing in daily life. The information helps doctors understand how the condition affects people's wellbeing and exercise ability.
This study looks at people admitted with a recent heart event (STEMI, NSTEMI, or unstable angina) and who were found to have SCAD on a heart scan. It may help doctors better understand and manage SCAD after these urgent events.
This trial is a registry, meaning it collects detailed medical information to better understand fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) and a specific type of heart-vessel dissection (SCAD) linked to FMD. It may help researchers learn who is at risk and guide better care in the future.
