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 Results may not be published yet.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

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.

Summary

This trial tests whether doing a coronary angiogram (a special X-ray of the heart arteries) within 2 hours of diagnosis is better than waiting until the patient's heart failure symptoms improve. The study includes 780 adults with a type of heart attack called NSTEMI who also have new or worsening heart failure. The goal is to see if immediate imaging reduces the chance of death, another heart attack, or heart failure hospitalization over the next year.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Coronary angiography (a procedure to look at heart arteries using dye and X-rays)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could show that doing angiography within 2 hours reduces the risk of death, another heart attack, or heart failure hospitalization compared to waiting until the patient stabilizes.
What could go wrong
This is a single trial with 780 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The study is open-label, meaning doctors and patients know which group they are in, which can bias results. There is also a risk that immediate angiography could cause complications in unstable patients.
