Study of heart surgery outcomes during COVID-19
Part of Infections, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.

- Be at least 18 years old
- Be having heart surgery or chest (thoracic) surgery

This study looks at how the COVID-19 outbreak affected care for people admitted to the cardiac intensive care unit. It may help hospitals improve how they plan and respond during major outbreaks.
This study looks at how the COVID-19 pandemic changed outcomes and experiences for people who had surgery in Stockholm during the study period. It may help hospitals prepare better plans for patients during future outbreaks.
This study looks at how COVID-19 affects heart health over time in people who were hospitalized. Your results may help doctors predict prognosis and understand who is at higher heart risk after recovery.
This is a registry that collects information from people who have heart or chest (thoracic) surgery. It may help doctors understand what improves outcomes after surgery, but it usually does not test a new drug.
This study asks patients and their families about their experience after heart surgery (like bypass or valve repair) to help doctors improve follow-up care. You'll share your story through an interview, and your feedback could help future patients.
This study looks back at records of people who had heart surgery with a heart-lung machine. The researchers want to see if a special blood test done during surgery (which checks how well your blood clots) can predict how the patient recovers and whether they have complications.
