Heart artery showdown: one device vs. custom toolkit for stent success
NCT ID NCT07105930
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests if using a single device (orbital atherectomy) to sand away calcium in heart arteries works as well as letting doctors choose from several methods based on each patient's calcium type. About 310 adults with severely calcified arteries will be randomly assigned to one approach. The goal is to see how well the stent expands after treatment.
