A study on monitoring brain blood flow during heart surgery
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a new way to monitor blood flow in the brain during heart bypass surgery. It may help patients who need coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with a heart-lung machine.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You can give your own consent to participate.
- Your main language is English.
- You do not have severe heart valve problems or active heart failure.
- You do not have an ongoing irregular heartbeat like atrial fibrillation or flutter at the time of data collection.

This study looks at how blood flow readings during coronary artery bypass surgery relate to whether the new grafts stay open and how well patients recover. It aims to help improve long-term results for people needing bypass surgery.
This study tests a new way to monitor blood flow to the brain during heart surgery. The goal is to see if this can help protect the brain and reduce thinking problems after surgery.
This trial checks if a new way of measuring blood flow during heart bypass surgery helps improve outcomes. It's for people having planned (not emergency) bypass surgery for certain types of chest pain or heart attack.
This trial studies whether different circulatory support techniques during coronary artery bypass surgery affect blood flow to the brain. It may help find ways to protect brain function during the procedure.
This trial studies whether tailoring anesthesia and monitoring the brain’s blood-flow control during heart surgery can improve neurological outcomes (brain-related function and recovery). It may help by guiding anesthesia in a more individualized way and checking how well the brain is protected during the operation.
This study tests a new way to monitor your heart and blood flow during heart surgery that uses a heart-lung machine. The goal is to see if this integrated approach helps doctors make better decisions during the operation.
