Blood recycling device study in heart surgery
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial looks at how a device that collects and reuses your own blood during heart surgery works. It may help reduce the need for donated blood.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests if using your own donated platelets during complex heart surgery is safe and effective. If you are having major heart surgery, donating your own platelets beforehand might help you recover better.
This study watches how well platelets (cells that help blood clot) work in people who have high-risk heart surgery using a heart-lung machine for more than 2 hours. The goal is to learn more about bleeding risks after surgery.
This trial tests whether giving back a patient's own platelets and red blood cells during heart surgery can reduce bleeding and the need for donor blood transfusions. It is for people having certain types of high-risk heart surgery with a heart-lung machine.
This trial tests whether collecting and re-infusing your own blood during heart surgery reduces the need for donor blood transfusions. It's for adults having planned bypass surgery with a heart-lung machine.
This trial tests if a machine that collects and reuses blood during heart surgery can help patients avoid needing donor blood transfusions. It is for people having a first-time coronary bypass or heart valve surgery.
This study tests whether a personalized plan for when to give blood transfusions works better than the usual approach in people having heart surgery with a heart-lung machine. The goal is to find a safer and more effective way to manage transfusions during recovery.
