RECRUITING

Evaluation of Patients With Non-obstructive Coronary Arteries

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

Patients with angina and non-obstructive CAD are common within clinical practice, but remain a challenge with regard to diagnosis and treatment. When these patients undergo a comprehensive evaluation at the time of invasive coronary angiography, occult coronary abnormalities are frequently found. We hope to learn the overall prevalence and presentation of these occult coronary abnormalities and its long term outcome in this patient population.
