Genetic Investigations in Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection (SCAD)
Sponsor: Mayo Clinic
View on ClinicalTrials.gov
Summary
The purpose of the research is to identify mutations (defects in the genetic blueprint) that cause spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD), in other words, spontaneous tears in blood vessels that supply the heart. Some mutations may be inherited (passed on) from a parent without an apparent blood vessel problem while others may develop for the first time in the affected person.
