This study compares two drugs given directly into the heart arteries during a heart attack: rhTNK-tPA, a clot dissolver, and tirofiban, a blood thinner. Researchers will enroll 300 patients with severe blockages to see which drug restores blood flow better and causes fewer bleedi…

This study tests whether using a blood pressure cuff to create brief periods of reduced blood flow (remote ischemic conditioning) combined with daily mindfulness meditation can lower the risk of heart attacks, heart failure, and chest pain in people with coronary artery disease w…

This study tests whether a non-invasive technique called remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) can help lower blood pressure in people with mild hypertension. RIPC involves briefly restricting blood flow to an arm using a cuff, which may trigger protective effects. Researchers w…

This study is testing whether doing repeated cycles of arm blood pressure cuff inflation (called remote ischemic preconditioning) over several months can improve blood flow to the heart muscle in people who have had coronary artery bypass surgery. The researchers will measure hea…

This study is testing whether a simple, non-drug procedure called remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) can help people recover better after a heart attack. RIPC involves briefly inflating a blood pressure cuff on the arm or leg to restrict blood flow, then releasing it, repeate…
