First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tested a new way to give extra oxygen to the heart after a heart attack. Twenty patients received a special oxygen treatment for one hour through a thin tube placed in the heart artery. The main goal was to see if the procedure was safe and could be done without problems. The study did not test if this treatment cures heart disease, but rather if it could help limit heart damage.
