NCT ID NCT07311954
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aims to create a risk model that helps doctors decide which elderly patients (over 70) with heart disease need procedures like stents or bypass surgery. Researchers will collect CT scans, blood tests, and frailty assessments from 800 participants and follow them for two years. The goal is to improve decision-making and avoid unnecessary procedures.
