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

What this trial studies

This observational study aims to create a national registry for spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) in Switzerland. It focuses on understanding the natural history, outcomes, and treatments of SCAD, which primarily affects young women without traditional cardiovascular risk factors. By collecting data from patients diagnosed with SCAD, the registry seeks to improve timely diagnosis and clinical follow-up, addressing the gaps in knowledge surrounding this underdiagnosed condition. The study will include patients who are newly diagnosed or diagnosed within the last five years.
