This study looks at 600 people who had a major heart attack and have other narrowings in their heart arteries that are not severe but look unstable. Half will get a stent plus medication, and half will get medication alone. The goal is to see if stenting these unstable plaques re…

This study monitors the safety and performance of a medical device called Sequent Please Neo, used to treat blocked heart arteries. About 2,028 people receiving the device as part of their routine care will be followed. Researchers will track major heart problems like heart attac…

This study is testing a paclitaxel-coated balloon to open small coronary arteries in people with heart disease who also have a high risk of bleeding. About 501 participants will receive the balloon treatment and then take blood thinners for either the standard duration or just 7 …

This study tests a new drug-coated heart stent (VIVO ISAR) against a standard one (XIENCE Skypoint) in 40 people with coronary artery disease. Each patient receives both stents in different blocked arteries, and doctors use a special camera to check healing after one month. The g…

This study is tracking 400 people with coronary artery disease who received the ihtDEStiny drug-eluting stent during a routine procedure to open blocked heart arteries. Researchers are monitoring how well the stent works over time, including rates of heart attacks, repeat procedu…

This study tests whether a blood test can help doctors safely lower the dose of strong blood thinners (P2Y12 inhibitors) in people who recently had a heart attack or stent. The goal is to reduce bleeding complications without raising the risk of another heart attack or stroke. Ab…

This study compares two imaging techniques, OCT and IVUS, used to evaluate blockages in a key heart artery. Researchers want to see if OCT can better identify which blockages need treatment. The study involves 153 adults with moderate blockages and will track their heart health o…

This study follows 400 people who had a stent placed in the left main coronary artery. Half get a routine angiogram 6 months later, while the other half have only clinical follow-up. Researchers want to see if the extra imaging reduces the chance of death, heart attack, or stroke…

This study tracks how doctors in Spain use injectable blood thinners (cangrelor or GPIs) during heart procedures like stent placement. It includes 717 patients and will look at short-term outcomes like death, heart attack, stroke, and bleeding within 48 hours. The goal is to unde…

This study looks at whether people who get a new heart valve through a tube in their leg (TAVI) can safely go home just 24 hours later. Researchers will track 585 patients for complications like stroke, heart attack, or need for a pacemaker. The goal is to see if early discharge …
