Orbital atherectomy versus standard balloon strategy for calcified coronary bifurcation lesions
This study tests whether using orbital atherectomy before stenting helps adults with moderately or severely calcified coronary bifurcation lesions get better stent results than the standard balloon-first approach.
-
Healthy Nordic diet's effects on heart disease
This study is testing if following a Healthy Nordic diet can help people with coronary heart disease improve their heart health over 18 months.

Comparing heart imaging techniques for coronary artery disease
This study is testing if a new heart imaging method can better identify problems in patients suspected of having coronary artery disease compared to a traditional imaging technique.
-
Measuring treatment compliance for sleep apnea in heart disease patients
This study tests how well heart disease patients with sleep apnea stick to using two different treatments, a CPAP machine and a mouthpiece, to see which one they find easier to use.
-
Single versus dual antiplatelet therapy after drug-coated balloon angioplasty in elderly or high-bleeding-risk patients
This study tests whether taking one antiplatelet medicine is as safe and causes less bleeding than taking two medicines for people aged 75 or older, or adults at high bleeding risk, after drug-coated balloon angioplasty for coronary artery disease.
-
Evaluating new methods for assessing coronary artery disease after procedures
This study is testing a new way to check for coronary artery disease in patients with multiple blocked arteries to see if it works better than the usual method after they have heart procedures.
-
Using a special stent to treat coronary artery perforations
This study tests a special stent to see if it can help patients with sudden tears in their coronary arteries feel better and avoid serious problems.
-
Comparing stress echocardiography and CT coronary angiography for chronic coronary syndrome
This study is testing whether a combination of stress echocardiography and carotid ultrasound works better than regular CT scans for diagnosing heart problems in adults with chronic coronary syndrome.
-
Comparing two methods for diagnosing heart conditions in patients with non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome
This study is testing if a non-invasive heart scan can safely and effectively diagnose heart conditions in patients with certain types of heart attacks, compared to the traditional invasive method.

This study is testing how well and safely the Synergy XD and Megatron stents work for people with coronary artery disease compared to other stents in real-life situations.
-
Registry to evaluate outcomes of coronary artery disease patients treated with specific balloon catheters
This study looks at how well certain drug-coated balloons work for patients with coronary artery disease who have had a specific heart procedure, to see how they help with recovery and overall health.
-
Long-term remote ischemic preconditioning to improve heart blood flow and outcomes after CABG
This trial tries whether repeated arm‑cuff blood‑flow interruptions (remote ischemic preconditioning) can improve heart blood flow and outcomes for people having CABG.
-
Evaluating the effectiveness of the DESyne X2 coronary stent in clinical practice
This study is testing how well the DESyne X2 stent works for people with blocked arteries who are getting a heart procedure.
-
Evaluating heart imaging techniques for coronary disease treatment
This study is testing whether using a specific heart imaging technique called computed tomography perfusion can help people with coronary artery disease get better treatment results compared to another method called fractional flow reserve.
-
Evaluating new radiation techniques for heart imaging
This study is testing new heart imaging techniques that use less radiation to see if they can still provide accurate results for diagnosing coronary disease.
-
Survey of patients with acute coronary syndromes
This study is looking to gather information from patients with heart problems like unstable angina and heart attacks in Eastern Europe to see how they are treated and how they do over time.
