PERCUTANEOUS CORONARY INTERVENTION

This study tests whether a smartphone app can help people with coronary heart disease better control their blood pressure and cholesterol after a heart procedure. About 792 adults who have had a stent placed will either use the app or receive standard care. The goal is to see if …

This study compares two ways to open blocked heart arteries: a drug-coated balloon and a drug-coated stent. About 892 adults with multiple blocked arteries will be randomly assigned to one treatment. The goal is to see which approach leads to fewer deaths, heart attacks, repeat p…

This study will follow about 50 adults who received a special drug-coated stent (ABLUMINUS NP) to treat blocked heart arteries. Researchers want to see how safe and effective the stent is in real-world use over 5 years. The main goal is to check if the treated artery stays open a…

This study compares two blood thinners, bivalirudin and heparin, in over 5,000 heart patients who are at high risk of bleeding and need a procedure to open blocked arteries (PCI). The goal is to see if bivalirudin reduces serious complications like death, heart attack, stroke, or…

This study is testing if placing an ice pack on the groin area can help patients feel better after a common heart procedure. Researchers want to see if this simple method reduces pain and bruising where the needle went in. They are looking for 60 adults who have just had this pro…

This study looks at why some people's coronary artery disease gets worse quickly while others' does not. Researchers will compare medical history, test results, and imaging from 52 adults who have had heart procedures. The goal is to find patterns that could help predict and mana…

This study is a large registry that will observe 3,000 people with severely calcified coronary artery disease who are undergoing a procedure to open their blocked arteries (PCI). The goal is to collect real-world data on different treatment techniques and tools to see which work …

This study involves over 1,000 adults who had a heart artery opened with a drug-coated balloon at least a year ago. Researchers want to see if stopping antiplatelet medication (blood thinners) is safe and reduces bleeding risks compared to continuing the medication. Participants …
