Impella®-Supported PCI in High-Risk Patients With Complex Coronary Artery Disease and Reduced Left Ventricular Function

Trial on Impella® for high-risk heart patients with complex issues.

Recruiting
18-90 years
All
Phase N/A
  • Simplified description (AI rewritten)
  • Technical description (Original)

This study looks at using a device called Impella® during a heart procedure known as PCI (Percutaneous Coronary Intervention). This is for patients with complex coronary artery disease (CAD) and poor left ventricular function (how well the left side of the heart pumps blood). The Impella® device helps the heart pump blood during the procedure. The study wants to see if using Impella® during PCI helps patients have fewer health problems like heart attacks, strokes, or the need for other heart surgeries, compared to not using it.

  • The study lasts for 3 years with follow-ups.
  • Participants must be between 18 and 90 years old.
  • Participants must have specific heart conditions and agree to follow study procedures.

Not everyone can join. If you had a recent heart attack, have severe heart or lung problems, or are on certain medications, you might not qualify. Participants must agree to randomization (being randomly assigned to a group) and provide consent. This study could help improve heart procedures for high-risk patients.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
