About this study

The purpose of the registry is to collect and analyze clinical and laboratory data and tissue samples from patients who are diagnosed with any type of heart disease and to collect the same information and samples from healthy controls in participating Intermountain Healthcare facilities.

Read the detailed description

This is a registry (database) project; there are no investigational treatments, drug or procedures associated with participation in registry activities. This project is an organized data gathering and storing (database) endeavor with specific focus on the precursors, modifiers, biological, and genetic parameters of heart disease and related medical conditions. Data collection will not immediately influence the course of treatment for any patient.Sample testing and data utilization for basic science, clinical, and epidemiologic and publication projects can be initiated using the databank.

The registry will enable researchers to determine best medical practices for predicting, preventing, and treating heart disease. The registry will: 1) develop standard methods to collect data and specimens which will be used for research to characterize patients diagnosed with heart disease as well as healthy controls and to assess differences in demographics and patient outcomes in both populations; 2) collect, process, and store patients' clinical data and tissue/blood samples; 3) analyze data collected; 4) use these resources to identify genes, genetic polymorphisms, genetic mutations, clinical methods and procedures, and/or biomarkers that predict, prevent, or treat heart disease and/or are associated correlate with lifestyle or disease outcomes; 5) publish and disseminate results.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coronary Artery Disease and Electrophysiology, run by Intermountain Health Care, Inc. at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Apr 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Outcome Risk (time frame: 30 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00406185, which also lists 6 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Apr 2026; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 30 Oct 2026.
