Calcium monitoring during heart surgery
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at whether tracking calcium levels during heart surgery can help reduce bleeding. It aims to find a better way to manage patients during and after surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at whether calcium levels in your blood can affect how much pain you feel after abdominal surgery. It may help doctors manage pain better after surgery in the future.
This study looks at whether a simple heart rate and blood pressure measure can help predict if patients with heart conditions will have heart problems after major abdominal surgery. It may help doctors monitor patients more closely and prevent complications.
This study follows people after major surgery to see what predicts heart and blood vessel problems later. It does not test a new drug; it mainly collects health information to help clinicians reduce risk.
This study watches for an irregular heartbeat called atrial fibrillation that can happen after heart surgery. The aim is to understand and manage this condition better to support recovery.
This study tracks heart health before and after major surgery for prostate or kidney cancer in older adults. Researchers want to predict which patients might experience heart problems after surgery so they can provide better care.
This trial tests a new method to monitor blood pressure during heart surgery that uses a heart-lung machine. It is for people at higher risk for stroke or other brain blood vessel issues.
