Testing blood-pressure hormone changes during bypass surgery
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how a blood-pressure hormone system (RAAS) changes during coronary artery bypass surgery. It may help researchers understand better how to manage blood pressure and heart stress around the time of surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are an adult (18 or older) having a coronary bypass operation
- Your surgery may be done on-pump or off-pump
- You can sign and understand the informed consent form
- Your surgery is not being done as an emergency for a sudden heart problem
- You paused certain blood-pressure medicines (ACE inhibitors or ARBs/AT1 blockers) the day of surgery

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests a drug called angiotensin II for patients whose blood pressure stays dangerously low after heart surgery. The drug may help raise blood pressure so the body gets enough blood flow.
This trial tests a new monitoring tool that predicts drops in blood pressure before they happen during major aortic surgery. It may help doctors keep your blood pressure more stable during the procedure.
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.
This trial tests a targeted way to manage blood pressure before and after off-pump heart bypass surgery, with the goal of reducing acute kidney injury (sudden kidney problems). It may help some people by lowering stress on the kidneys during and right after surgery.
This study compares two ways of managing blood pressure during heart bypass surgery to see which is better for patient outcomes. The goal is to help doctors choose the right blood pressure targets during surgery.
This study looks at how changes in blood pressure during heart bypass surgery relate to how quickly the body clears lactic acid afterwards, which is a sign of recovery. It may help doctors understand recovery patterns after surgery.
