Assessing heart disease risk in former NFL players

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

The GAMEFILM Registry is a multi-center observational study that collects data on the prevalence and severity of coronary artery disease (CAD) among retired NFL players. This study involves approximately 300 participants from around 20 sites across the United States. Participants will undergo coronary computed tomography angiography to evaluate their cardiac health and identify potential risks associated with their history as professional athletes.
