Using a new tool to support decisions for patients with ischemic heart disease
Official title: Clinical Implementation of a Novel Decision Support Tool in Patients With Ischemic Heart Disease
Run by Copenhagen University Hospital, Rigshospitalet · NCT06033014 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study tests whether a new software tool can help doctors make better treatment decisions for patients with ischemic heart disease and improve their chances of staying out of the hospital.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates include hospitalized patients with ischemic heart disease who have significant coronary artery lesions identified during coronary angiography.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients under 18 years of age or those living outside Denmark may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This clinical trial evaluates the PM-Heart algorithm, a software designed to predict survival prognosis for patients hospitalized with ischemic heart disease after undergoing coronary arteriography. The algorithm serves as a clinical decision support system, enhancing physicians' therapeutic considerations without dictating specific actions. The study aims to determine if using this algorithm improves patient outcomes and reduces the risk of re-hospitalization compared to standard treatment without the algorithm's input.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this tool could lead to better patient outcomes and reduced hospital readmissions for those with ischemic heart disease.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promise in using decision support tools in clinical settings, suggesting potential for success with this approach.
