NCT ID NCT07252388
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether an educational smartphone app can help people who have had a heart attack or other acute coronary event achieve their LDL cholesterol targets. About 240 patients across 24 hospitals will be randomly assigned to use the app or receive usual care. The main goal is to see if more app users reach the recommended LDL level below 55 mg/dL after 12 months.
