CompREhensive Diagnostic Assessment of Coronary Endothelial Function Impairment and Vasospasm With CoNtinuous ThErmodilution in Patients With Suspected Coronary Microvascular and Vasomotor Dysfunction
100 participantsStarted 2025-12-15
Plain-language summary
The goal of this observational study is to learn more about the diagnosis of coronary endothelium function and coronary vasospasm using a dedicated invasive protocol in patients who has angina without obstruction in their main heart arteries. The main question it aims to answer is the feasibility, reproducibility, and safety of this invasive protocol:
Does this invasive protocol diagnose coronary endothelial dysfunction and vasospasm without issues?
Participants already having invasive coronary angiogram and physiological studies will undergo additional physiological measurements during the same procedure.
Participants will enrol in a symptoms and quality of life questionnaire using dedicated questionnaires and a mobile application to assess the burden of their symptoms before and after the invasive procedure and up to 12 months follow up.
A subset of participants will undergo a repeat set of these measurements to assess reproducibility of the invasive protocol.
A subset of the participants will also undergo a cardiac MRI to assess correlation with the invasive protocol measurements.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
