Trial summary

Narrowing of the arteries that supply blood to the heart can lead to heart attacks and death. One way of treating this is to use artery and vein grafts from other parts of the body to bypass the narrowing. However, the blood flow from these grafts "competes" with flow through the natural coronary artery. Read more about this study

About this study

Narrowing of the arteries that supply blood to the heart can lead to heart attacks and death. One way of treating this is to use artery and vein grafts from other parts of the body to bypass the narrowing. However, the blood flow from these grafts "competes" with flow through the natural coronary artery. This may contribute to grafts narrowing with time. This protocol aims to determine the pressure changes responsible for this effect. This could improve our understanding of why some grafts last longer than others.

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 1 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Justin E Davies, MRCP, PhD (020 7594 33 86, justin.davies@imperial.ac.uk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 8 Feb 2017.
