Idiopathic spontaneous coronary artery dissection

This study tests whether a 12-week remote exercise program is feasible for women who have had a heart attack caused by spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD). SCAD mainly affects otherwise healthy women, and standard cardiac rehab may not fit their needs. The study will me…

This study looks at how people with spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) and fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) respond to different types of exercise. Researchers will measure changes in blood pressure, breathing, and symptoms during and after exercise. The goal is to better…

This study aims to uncover the biological basis of fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD) and related artery conditions like spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) and cervical artery dissection (CvAD). Researchers will analyze genetic and molecular data from 600 participants, incl…

This study at Mayo Clinic compares 50 people who have had SCAD (a tear in a heart artery) with healthy volunteers. Researchers measure artery stiffness, thickness, and how the 'fight or flight' nervous system responds to stress. The goal is to understand what might cause SCAD, no…

This study is a large national survey of 2,000 people with fibromuscular dysplasia (FMD), a rare artery disease that can cause strokes or heart attacks. Researchers want to understand what physical activity restrictions doctors recommend and how those restrictions affect patients…

This study aims to find genetic mutations that cause spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD), a condition where arteries in the heart tear without warning. Researchers will analyze DNA from 2000 people diagnosed with SCAD, as well as their relatives. The goal is to identify…

This study is creating a large registry of people who have had a spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD), a type of heart attack. Researchers will collect medical history and follow participants over time to learn more about risk factors, treatments, and long-term outcomes.…

This study is following 300 people in Norway who have had a spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD), a rare cause of heart attacks, especially in women. Researchers will use scans, blood tests, and questionnaires to track their health for one year. The goal is to better und…

This study uses a special ultrasound (stress echocardiography with contrast) to measure blood flow and blood pressure changes in people who have had a spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD). Researchers want to understand how small blood vessels in the heart work after SCA…
