Monitoring heart oxygen during pediatric open-heart surgery
Part of Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study uses a non-invasive light-based technique to monitor oxygen levels in the heart muscle during open-heart surgery in children. It aims to see if this method can help doctors better manage the surgery and improve outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Patient must be under 18 years old.
- Patient must be scheduled for open-heart surgery.
- Patient or guardian must be able to provide informed consent.

This study measures oxygen levels in the heart muscle during open-heart surgery using a light-based technique. You may qualify if you are an adult scheduled for this surgery and can provide consent.
This trial tests whether a goal-focused monitoring approach can help optimize oxygen levels in the blood during children’s heart surgery using a heart-lung machine. It may help clinicians adjust care more precisely during surgery.
This study tests a special light sensor that measures blood flow to the heart and other organs during complex heart surgery. It may help doctors better understand and manage blood flow in children at risk for complications.
This trial checks how well pulse oximeters (devices that measure oxygen levels) work in children with congenital heart disease who have different skin colors. It aims to make sure these devices are accurate for all children during heart surgery.
This study tests a new non-invasive way to monitor how well oxygen is being delivered to your body during and after heart surgery. Researchers will compare this new monitoring method with standard devices that are already being used during your surgery.
This study is testing a device that checks blood oxygen levels in children having heart surgery or catheterization. The goal is to see if it works well for kids, which could lead to a non-invasive way to monitor blood health.
