Oxygen-based blood flow management after heart surgery
Part of Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study is testing a new way to manage blood flow after heart surgery in children with congenital heart disease. The goal is to make sure the body gets the right amount of oxygen to help recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must weigh more than 2.5 kg (about 5.5 pounds).
- Your child's oxygen level in the blood must have been above 80% before surgery.
- The planned surgery must be a biventricular repair that uses a heart-lung machine.
- Your child cannot have a functional single ventricle or certain heart structure issues.
- Your child cannot have serious disease of the liver, kidneys, lungs, or brain.

This study tests a personalized breathing technique to improve lung function and heart performance in children who have had heart surgery or are on ECMO. The goal is to find the best way to open up the lungs safely.
This trial tests a breathing maneuver during heart surgery to see how it affects blood flow and lung function in children with congenital heart disease. It may help doctors improve breathing support during and after surgery.
This trial tests whether a goal-focused monitoring approach can help optimize oxygen levels in the blood during children’s heart surgery using a heart-lung machine. It may help clinicians adjust care more precisely during surgery.
This trial looks at how oxygen is used during heart surgery that uses a heart-lung machine, and whether low oxygen levels can lead to organ damage. It may help doctors better understand how to protect patients during surgery.
This study tests a more guided oxygen plan during long major abdominal operations to help manage how much oxygen your body uses. It compares the new oxygen approach to the current standard method during surgery.
This study looks at how different oxygen levels during heart bypass surgery might affect recovery. It aims to see if keeping oxygen at a certain level can improve outcomes for people having surgery where a vein from the leg is used to bypass a blocked heart artery.
