Safety study of aortic root cannula in heart surgery
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study follows patients who undergo heart surgery using a heart-lung machine (cardiopulmonary bypass) and a special tube called an aortic root cannula. Researchers will monitor how well the device works and whether it causes any problems during and after surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You need heart surgery planned using cardiopulmonary bypass (heart-lung machine)
- Your surgeon plans to use an aortic root cannula (a specialized tube inserted into the main artery from the heart)
- You must agree in writing to let the hospital use your medical data for this research
- You cannot have a known allergy to PVC, ABS plastic, or stainless steel
- Your aorta (main artery) must be in reasonably good condition—no severe calcification, blockages, or significant wall damage
- You cannot have participated in another clinical trial in the past 30 days

This study follows patients who need heart surgery with a special bypass machine to see how well and safely a small tube (vent catheter) works when placed in the heart during surgery. Researchers want to make sure this device performs as expected and doesn't cause problems.
This study tracks how well and safely a specialized tube (cannula) works when inserted into heart arteries during bypass surgery. Researchers will monitor patients after surgery to ensure the device performs as expected and causes no problems.
This study tests whether using a special catheter (thin tube) in the pulmonary artery during heart or aorta surgery helps doctors better manage your heart's function. The catheter measures pressures in your heart to guide treatment during surgery.
This study tests two types of tubes used during heart surgery to connect you to a heart-lung machine. It aims to see if they work safely and effectively.
This study is testing a special tube (cannula) placed in the groin artery during heart surgery to connect a heart-lung machine. It's for people who are scheduled for planned heart surgery and may be helped by this refined device.
This study measures how well blood flows through small vessels in your heart and under your tongue during open-heart surgery. It aims to better understand circulation in people having valve repair or aorta replacement with a heart-lung machine.
