New heart artery map could speed up Life-Saving tests
NCT ID NCT05682118
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests a dynamic coronary roadmap system that helps doctors guide a pressure wire into narrowed heart arteries. 226 patients with ischemic heart disease will be randomly assigned to have the procedure with or without the roadmap. The main goal is to see if the roadmap reduces the time needed to place the pressure wire.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- dynamic coronary roadmap system (a procedural imaging tool)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could make heart artery pressure tests quicker and easier for doctors, potentially improving patient care.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage study focused on procedure time, not patient outcomes. The roadmap system may not work for all patients or may not lead to better health results.
