Dissolvable heart stents could replace permanent metal ones
Disease control OngoingThis study looks at whether stents that slowly dissolve in the body are safe and effective for treating blocked heart arteries. About 120 adults with stable chest pain or mild heart attacks will receive these bioresorbable stents. The goal is to see if they help the artery heal b…

New imaging tech could save hearts: 3,000-Patient trial launches
Diagnosis ENROLLING_BY_INVITATIONThis study compares two ways to guide treatment for blocked heart arteries in people having a heart attack. One method uses standard X-ray dye pictures (angiography), the other adds a special camera that takes 3D images inside the artery (OCT). Researchers want to see if OCT guid…

Heart stent showdown: which one heals faster?
Knowledge-focused OngoingThis study compares two drug-coated stents (SYNERGY and BioMatrix NeoFlex) used to open blocked heart arteries. Researchers will use a special camera to look at how the artery heals around the stent at one and three months after placement. The goal is to see which stent leads to …
