ACUTE MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION (AMI)

This study tests whether giving a powerful cholesterol-lowering drug (PCSK9 inhibitor) very early in the hospital, on top of standard care, can reduce the risk of another heart attack, stroke, or death in people who just had a heart attack and have blockages in multiple heart art…

This study tests a drug called ziltivekimab in people who recently had a heart attack. The goal is to see if it can reduce dangerous fatty plaques in the arteries by lowering inflammation. About 332 participants will receive either the drug or a placebo, plus standard care, for 1…

This study tests a new temporary heart pump (Magenta Elevate) in 10 people with cardiogenic shock, a life-threatening condition where the heart can't pump enough blood. The pump is inserted through a blood vessel to help the left ventricle work. The goal is to see if it is safe a…

This study looks at whether using aspirin alone is as effective and safer than using aspirin with another blood thinner (fondaparinux) before a heart procedure in people with a certain type of heart attack (NSTEMI). About 5,000 participants will be randomly assigned to one of the…

This study tests whether montelukast, a common asthma drug, can reduce inflammation and limit heart damage in people who have just had a major heart attack (STEMI). About 80 adults will receive either the drug or a placebo within 6 hours of their heart attack. Researchers will me…

This study tests a new medicine called ziltivekimab in people who were recently hospitalized for a heart attack. The goal is to see if a monthly injection can lower the risk of having another heart attack, stroke, or dying from heart disease. About 10,000 adults will be randomly …

This study tests a new rapid blood test (TriageTrue hs-cTnI) that can rule out heart attacks in just one hour, right in emergency primary care clinics. Researchers will enroll 2,500 adults with chest pain across six Norwegian clinics to see if the test safely reduces hospital ref…

This study is testing a new AI-powered computer system designed to read heart tracings (ECGs) to detect heart attacks. Researchers will compare how accurately and quickly the AI system works compared to human doctors interpreting the same tracings. The goal is to see if this tech…

This study will follow 6,000 people who had a heart attack and received a stent (a small tube to open blocked arteries) at Zhongshan Hospital. Researchers will collect information on their health during the hospital stay and for up to two years after. The goal is to better unders…

This study is testing whether a special CT scan can better predict future heart problems in people who have had a heart attack and a stent placed. Researchers will enroll 1,000 patients and use the CT scan to look at the heart arteries, heart muscle, and surrounding fat. They wil…

This study looks at people who had a heart attack and also experienced a dangerous heart rhythm (ventricular arrhythmia) while still in the hospital. Researchers will collect data from 500 patients to learn more about their health and survival after leaving the hospital. The goal…

This study looks at whether people who have had a heart attack can be safely discharged from the hospital after about 24 hours, instead of the usual 36 hours or more. Researchers will compare the two approaches in over 2,000 participants to see if early discharge leads to similar…
