ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is studying a new approach to help patients with a specific type of heart disease called coronary artery disease (CAD). The focus is on using a special technique called the LIMA patch to repair a part of the heart's artery known as the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD). The goal is to see how well this method works for patients who have widespread problems in the LAD, both in the short term and in the months following the surgery.
To participate in this trial, patients should be between the ages of 30 and 90, and they must have ischemic heart disease, which is a condition that can lead to chest pain and heart problems. However, if a patient has already had open heart surgery in the past, they won't be eligible for this study. This trial is currently not recruiting participants, but if you meet the criteria and are interested, it's a chance to contribute to new treatments for heart disease. Participants will receive close monitoring and care throughout the study to ensure their safety and well-being.
