SWAN Trial Summary

This trial will help doctors understand why some women have heart attacks even when they don't have any major blockages in their heart arteries.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for women who have had a heart attack or unstable angina and are scheduled for an angiography, but do not have major blockages in their heart arteries. Women with previous obstructive coronary artery disease, those who can't undergo IVUS or MRI procedures, or those using vasospastic agents cannot participate.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study uses intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) to take pictures of the inside of arteries and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to assess blood flow and damage in the heart. It aims to understand why some women experience heart attacks despite having no significant blockage in their arteries.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

While this study does not involve drugs that could cause typical medication side effects, IVUS and MRI are generally safe but may include risks such as discomfort during the procedure, allergic reactions to contrast materials used, or complications from lying still during MRI.
