Blood cell changes and heart attack recovery
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how certain harmless changes in blood cells affect recovery after a first heart attack. It may help doctors understand why some people recover better than others.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are having your first heart attack, which is a type where the heart muscle is damaged.
- You are between 18 and 75 years old.
- You are being treated with a procedure to open the blocked artery (called primary PCI).
- Your symptoms started more than 30 minutes ago but less than 12 hours before the procedure.
- You have not had a heart attack, heart surgery, or stents before.
- You do not have cancer, blood disorders, or serious kidney disease.
- You are not pregnant.

This study looks at how certain age-related changes in blood cells, called clonal hematopoiesis, affect inflammation and health. It aims to understand why some people with these changes develop heart problems or blood disorders, which could guide future prevention.
This study looks at whether changes in blood cells (called clonal hematopoiesis) are linked to heart failure. By testing your blood, researchers hope to learn more about how heart failure progresses and find new ways to treat it.
This study looks at blood tests and heart function after a first heart attack (STEMI) treated with emergency stenting. Researchers want to see if certain molecules in the blood can predict future heart problems.
This study looks at how immune cells change in the first few hours after a severe heart attack (STEMI) and how that relates to early scar healing. It may help doctors understand why some patients heal better than others.
This study is looking at certain blood markers and heart tissue changes in people who have recently had a heart attack. The goal is to understand how the heart heals and remodels after an attack, which could help improve future treatments.
This study looks at two blood markers (mean platelet volume and systemic inflammatory response index) to see if they help predict outcomes in people admitted with a heart attack or unstable angina. If you've had chest pain from a heart condition and get to the hospital quickly, this could be relevant for you.
