Mini-invasive surgery for lung cancer and heart rhythm changes
Part of Cancer, Heart & circulation, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at how lung cancer surgery affects the heart’s electrical signals and stress response, using heart tracing tests (ECG) around the time of surgery. It may help doctors better understand and monitor heart risks in people having curative, minimally invasive lung cancer surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You’re an adult (18+) scheduled for planned lung cancer surgery
- Your lung cancer surgery is meant to cure the cancer (curative intent)
- Your surgical plan is for minimally invasive (mini-invasive) surgery
- You’re willing to take part and follow the study instructions
- You are not in another medical study at the same time

This trial tests a new device called CellFX that uses nanosecond pulsed field ablation to treat atrial fibrillation during open-heart surgery. It may help you if you already need heart surgery and also have AFib.
This study looks at how the right side of your heart handles the stress of lung surgery. By measuring heart pressures before and during surgery, doctors hope to better predict recovery and reduce risks.
This study checks if a simple test of your heart and breathing before chest surgery can help predict problems after the operation. It looks at people having surgery for lung, esophagus, stomach, or chest tumors.
This trial tests an early heart-focused intervention guided by a special heart recording (impedance cardiography) in people with locally advanced, unresectable stage III non-small cell lung cancer. The goal is to improve heart-related safety during planned radiation and chemotherapy, with or without immunotherapy.
This trial tests a new device that uses pulsed field energy to treat atrial fibrillation while you are already having open-heart surgery for other heart problems. It aims to see if the device is safe and works well in correcting the irregular heartbeat.
This study tests if removing a small heart structure (the ligament of Marshall) during minimally invasive bypass surgery can help prevent a common heart rhythm problem called atrial fibrillation after surgery. If you're having this type of bypass and haven't had irregular heartbeats before, you may be able to join.
