Heart changes during jaw surgery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Ear, nose & throat, Heart & circulation, Pain clinical trials.
This study looks at how your heart and blood pressure change during a type of jaw surgery called bimaxillary orthognathic surgery. It will help doctors understand a reflex that can affect your heart rate during the procedure.
