NCT ID NCT03427996
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study is tracking 500 patients who received rotational atherectomy, a procedure that uses a tiny rotating burr to grind away hardened plaque in heart arteries. Researchers want to see how safe and effective it is in real-world settings. The main goal is to measure how many patients avoid major heart problems like death, heart attack, or needing another procedure within a year.
