Heart Safety Monitoring During Urologic Cancer Surgery
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 60 years old or older
- You need major surgery (such as removing prostate or kidney) for cancer under general anesthesia
- You had a heart rhythm test (EKG) before surgery
- Your surgery is considered medium-to-high risk for heart complications
- You can be checked on for at least 30 days after surgery
- You can stay in the hospital after your surgery

This study collects information from people having heart surgery to help predict and improve kidney health after the operation. It uses special monitoring data to see if we can better understand and prevent kidney problems.
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 checks whether close monitoring of vital signs around the time of non-cardiac surgery can help identify small heart injuries (called perioperative myocardial infarction or injury). It may help doctors spot people at higher risk sooner, especially after certain major surgeries.
This study checks for hidden heart damage after major abdominal surgery by measuring a blood marker called troponin. It uses this information to predict and improve outcomes in the 30 days after surgery.
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 looks at how changes in blood flow during major cancer surgery might affect the heart in patients 65 and older. It aims to see if these changes can predict heart damage after surgery, which could help doctors monitor and care for patients better.
