NCT ID NCT07176585

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This completed study tested whether a special ultrasound scan (IVUS) of plaque buildup in heart arteries can accurately diagnose reduced blood flow (functional myocardial ischemia). Researchers enrolled 105 adults with coronary artery disease and compared IVUS results to the standard FFR test. The goal was to see if IVUS plaque measurements could reliably identify blockages that need treatment.

What this could mean

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

What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a new, less invasive way to diagnose which heart artery blockages are serious enough to need treatment.
What could go wrong
This is a small, single-site study with only 105 participants. The results may not apply to all patients, and the method needs more testing before it can be widely used.
