Heart attack treatment revolution: stents may not always be needed

NCT ID NCT07567625

First seen May 11, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study looks at whether heart attack patients with mild blockages can be treated with medication alone instead of getting a stent. About 2,000 people will be randomly assigned to receive either standard medication or medication plus a stent. The goal is to see if medication alone is just as good at preventing future heart problems, like another heart attack or death.
