What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study tests whether a proactive, pharmacist-led telephone program can help people who have had a heart attack reach safer cholesterol levels. Participants receive pharmacist calls, repeat blood tests, and medication adjustments based on national guidelines. The goal is to see if this approach increases the number of patients who achieve an LDL cholesterol target below 1.8 mmol/L at six months, compared to usual care.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Pharmacist-led lipid optimization pathway (telephone clinic)
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could become a standard way to help heart attack survivors achieve healthier cholesterol levels and lower their risk of future heart attacks or strokes.
What could go wrong
This is a quality improvement study, not a test of a new drug. The results may not apply outside Alberta, and the program may not work as well in other healthcare settings.
