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 study tests a special sensor (near-infrared spectroscopy) that checks blood flow to the heart and other organs during heart surgery. It may help doctors monitor and improve care for children having complex heart procedures.
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 looks at how blood pressure changes during the start of open heart surgery and whether it affects oxygen levels in body tissues. It may help doctors better manage blood pressure during surgery to keep patients safe.
This study checks whether a new non-invasive measurement of oxygen delivery is accurate in patients having heart surgery. Participating may help improve monitoring during and after surgery, without extra procedures beyond what is already part of your care.
This trial tests a new type of oxygen monitor (pulse oximeter) in babies under 1 year old. It helps doctors better track oxygen levels in critically ill infants to improve care.
