Recovery after heart bypass surgery with heart-lung machine
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at patients having planned heart bypass surgery using a heart-lung machine to understand what factors affect their recovery. It helps doctors learn more about how to improve outcomes after surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 18 years or older
- You are scheduled for elective (not emergency) heart bypass surgery
- Your surgery will use a heart-lung machine (cardiopulmonary bypass)
- You have not had heart surgery before
- Your heart's pumping function (ejection fraction) is 30% or higher
