Anti-inflammatory for heart surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial is testing whether a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) given during heart surgery can reduce complications. It's for people having planned open-heart surgery with a heart-lung machine.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are scheduled for open heart surgery (like valve replacement or bypass) that uses a heart-lung machine.
- You are not taking anti-inflammatory painkillers (NSAIDs) regularly.
- You do not have advanced kidney disease or a history of stomach ulcers.
- You are at least 18 years old and weigh 50 kg (110 lbs) or more.

This study tests a more personalized way to give pain medicine during and after heart surgery in older adults. The goal is to improve pain control and recovery by tailoring the painkiller to each person. Participation could help find the right dose for you and reduce side effects.
This study looks at people having planned open-heart surgery to understand why some develop long-term pain afterward. By joining, you help researchers find ways to predict and prevent chronic pain, which could improve recovery for future patients.
This trial tests whether giving a medication called ketamine during heart surgery can reduce long-term pain after the operation. If it works, patients may recover with less chronic pain.
This study tests an experimental pain reliever (KHN702) for people who have moderate to severe pain after surgery. If you are scheduled for an operation, this trial aims to find out if this medication can safely reduce your post-operative pain.
This Phase 2 study looks at whether taking an anti-inflammatory pain medicine (an NSAID) after robotic partial nephrectomy is safe and helpful. It may reduce pain while checking for stomach, bleeding, and heart-related side effects after kidney-sparing surgery.
This study tests whether using fewer anti-inflammatory painkillers (NSAIDs) after lung surgery can help prevent long-term pain. If you are having keyhole lung surgery, you may be able to join and help find better ways to recover.
