Seamless care from before to after heart surgery
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study is for people who are getting ready for heart surgery and want to follow a program that helps them prepare and recover. It tests a seamless approach from before surgery through rehabilitation, focusing on exercise and support.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be scheduled for a planned heart surgery (coronary bypass or valve repair/replacement) – not an emergency.
- You must be able to understand and give your consent to join the study.
- You must be able to do simple physical exercises (like walking or light stretching).
- You must be 18 years or older.
- Your surgery must not be considered high risk (Euroscore II less than 8%) – your doctor can confirm this.

This trial studies whether special care planning before non-cardiac surgery can improve outcomes for older adults with signs of heart stress. If you are 65 or older and scheduled for a moderate- to high-risk surgery, you may be able to join.
This trial tests if special remote care before heart surgery can improve recovery for people with heart failure. You will have regular check-ins by video or phone to help manage your health before your operation.
This program helps people who are at higher risk of complications after heart surgery get stronger before their operation. It uses video visits to support you while you wait, so you recover better.
This study tests if starting a gentle exercise program soon after heart surgery helps you get stronger and recover faster. If you had planned heart surgery and are stable afterward, this may help you heal better.
This study tests whether a supervised exercise program before heart surgery can help adults with congenital heart disease recover better. You would join an exercise class 2–3 times a week for several weeks leading up to your operation.
This study tests whether early, home-based rehabilitation (using video calls and remote monitoring) can help older adults recover better after heart surgery. If you join, you'll get rehab sessions starting soon after you go home.
