Recruiting studies
- NCT06013189Recruiting
Adjusting gas flow during heart-lung machine rewarming
This study tests how adjusting the amount of sweep gas (a gas mixture) during the rewarming phase of heart-lung machine use might affect patients. It's for people having planned heart surgery with a standard heart-lung machine, not minimally invasive or robotic surgery.

Nitric oxide to protect brain and kidneys in babies during heart surgery
This trial studies whether giving nitric oxide during heart-lung bypass surgery can help protect a baby’s brain and kidneys. If you qualify, the study team will check outcomes after surgery to see if benefits happen compared with usual care.
Nashville, TennesseeAges birth–1 year - NCT06747546Enrolling by invitation
Oxygen-based blood flow management after heart surgery
This study is testing a new way to manage blood flow after heart surgery in children with congenital heart disease. The goal is to make sure the body gets the right amount of oxygen to help recovery.
Minhang, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 1 week–18 years - NCT04444362Enrolling by invitation
Probacine to protect organs after cardiovascular surgery
This study tests whether a medicine called Probacine can help protect your gut and organs after cardiovascular surgery. If you qualify, you may be asked to take part and follow the study plan to see if complications are reduced.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–90 - NCT04795193Enrolling by invitation
Minithoracotomy vs open surgery for multiple blocked heart arteries
This trial compares two types of bypass surgery for people with multiple blocked heart arteries, to see which one better improves quality of life and how well the bypasses stay open. You may be assigned based on your preferences, and the study also tracks heart scan and follow-up results.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 25–85 - NCT06756789Recruiting
Comparing standard vs. tailored limb lengths in gastric bypass
This study compares two different ways of measuring the length of the small intestine during a type of weight loss surgery called gastric bypass. If you are eligible, you may help determine which approach leads to better weight loss results.
Coimbatore, Tamil NaduAges 18–65 - NCT07390903Recruiting
Heart function test for difficult bypass weaning
This trial studies whether a heart ultrasound test called GLS can help predict complications when patients are taken off the heart-lung machine after heart surgery. It aims to improve management for better outcomes.
RomeAges 18 years+ - NCT06109155RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing medications to reduce bleeding in heart surgery
This trial tests two medicines—ACT (a blood thinner) and tranexamic acid (a medicine to reduce bleeding)—to see which is better at controlling bleeding during heart surgery. It is for adults having planned heart surgery with a heart-lung machine.
TaichungAges 18 years+ - NCT06673953Recruiting
Breathing training for heart surgery recovery with neck posture problems
This trial tests whether a breathing exercise device can improve heart and lung function in men who had heart bypass surgery at least 3 months ago and also have neck pain from poor posture. It may help you breathe better and feel stronger after surgery.
Giza, Giza GovernorateAges 45–55 - NCT07267546Recruiting
Study on heart-lung machine fluid and its effects in heart surgery
This study looks at how the fluid used to fill the heart-lung machine affects the body's chemistry and recovery in patients having heart surgery. It may help doctors choose the best fluid for better outcomes after bypass surgery.
LundAges 18 years+ - NCT06586749Recruiting
Nurse-led education and phone support to reduce infections after heart bypass
This study tests whether a special nurse-led program of phone calls and education can help reduce infections after heart bypass surgery. You may be eligible if you are at higher risk for infection and have a smartphone.
Heraklion, CreteAges 18 years+ - NCT06349577Recruiting
Bypass machine settings to protect kidneys during heart surgery
This study tests whether a special way of running the heart-lung bypass machine during planned heart surgery can help protect your kidneys and reduce the risk of kidney injury after the operation.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18–85 - NCT07711951Recruiting
Bypass surgery times and ICU stay length
This study looks at how long people stay in the intensive care unit after planned coronary artery bypass surgery. It checks if the time spent on the heart-lung machine or with the aorta clamped affects recovery.
Diyarbakır, Outside of the USAges 18 years+ - NCT05344573Recruiting
Testing better blood-flow rhythms during heart bypass surgery
This trial studies ways to control the “pulsatility” (how the blood pressure pulses during circulation) while you are on a heart-lung bypass machine. It may help improve safety and heart function during planned heart surgery.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 50–70 - NCT07000461Recruiting
Doppler test to predict memory problems after heart surgery
This study uses a noninvasive ultrasound test (transcranial Doppler) before heart surgery to see if it can help predict thinking or memory problems that may occur after the operation.
IstanbulAges 18–70 - NCT03204357Recruiting
Using your own blood after heart-lung machine surgery
This trial studies giving a “fresh” blood transfusion from your own blood after heart surgery that uses a heart-lung machine. It may help patients avoid needing donated blood, but it only works for people who meet specific safety and timing requirements.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18–90 - NCT07432477Recruiting
Lung opening techniques after heart surgery
This trial compares two methods of opening the lungs (recruitment maneuvers) after heart-lung bypass to see which works better. The study aims to help patients recover their lung function more quickly after cardiac surgery.
Samsun, AtakumAges 18–80 - NCT05740397Recruiting
Testing blood pressure targets during heart-lung bypass
This trial compares different strategies for keeping a specific blood pressure level during heart-lung bypass surgery. It may help reduce complications by finding the safest blood pressure target during the operation.
VeronaAges 18–80 - NCT06645327Recruiting
A study on monitoring brain blood flow during heart surgery
This trial tests a new way to monitor blood flow in the brain during heart bypass surgery. It may help patients who need coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with a heart-lung machine.
Hershey, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07013591RecruitingPhase 2
NMN supplement before heart bypass surgery
This trial tests whether a supplement called nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) can help people recover better after heart bypass surgery. NMN is related to vitamin B3 and may protect the kidneys and heart during surgery.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT06656117Enrolling by invitation
Elliptical vs. resistance training for heart bypass recovery
This study compares elliptical training with resistance training to see which better improves heart and lung function in patients who have had coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). It aims to help you recover more fully during phase III cardiac rehab.
Sialkot, Punjab ProvinceAges 45–55 - NCT07032792RecruitingPhase 2
FEIBA versus plasma for bleeding after heart surgery
This trial compares two treatments for bleeding after heart surgery: a medicine called FEIBA (which helps blood clot) and fresh frozen plasma (a blood product). The goal is to see which works better as a first treatment for bleeding during recovery.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cardiopulmonary bypass surgery?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 46 recruiting cardiopulmonary bypass surgery studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a cardiopulmonary bypass surgery trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a cardiopulmonary bypass surgery trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
