Why We Should Be Fighting Heart Disease More Like We Fight Cancer
Every year, heart disease is responsible for 19 million deaths worldwide. That's nearly twice the number of cancer deaths, yet people's perceptions of heart disease and cancer are remarkably different.
Clinical Trials
Clinical trials are research studies that evaluate a new medical approach, device, drug, or other treatment. As a Stanford Health Care patient, you may have access to the latest, advanced clinical trials.
Open trials refer to studies currently accepting participants. Closed trials are not currently enrolling, but may open in the future.
