Sedation combo for minimally invasive heart valve surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests whether adding a second sedative during minimally invasive heart valve surgery can reduce the amount of anesthetic needed, improve recovery, and lower the risk of complications.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for minimally invasive heart valve surgery.
- You are in good overall health (classified as ASA class I or II).
- You are 60 years old or younger.
- You do not have severe kidney, liver, or lung disease.
- You have not had an allergic reaction to the study drugs.
- Your heart's pumping function is at least 40% (ejection fraction).

This study examines how a specific sedative medication (dexmedetomidine) affects breathing and heart function during a minimally invasive procedure to replace a faulty heart valve. Researchers want to ensure the sedation is safe and effective for older adults.
This study tests two ways to manage anesthesia during minimally invasive heart surgery: one uses a numbing injection near the spine plus a drug called dexmedetomidine, and the other uses traditional opioid painkillers. The goal is to see which approach helps you wake up faster and recover with fewer side effects.
This study compares how well patients recover after a minimally invasive heart valve procedure (TAVR) when given different types of sedation. The goal is to find which sedation approach helps patients feel better and recover faster after the procedure.
This study compares two sedative medicines to see which one causes less confusion or delirium in older adults after heart valve surgery. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive one of the two medications during their surgery.
This trial compares two sedative medicines (remimazolam and propofol) given during heart ablation procedures. The study uses brain-wave monitoring to see which medicine provides better sedation and recovery. It's for people who are already scheduled for this procedure with a specific doctor.
This study compares two types of anesthesia (propofol or sevoflurane) given during heart surgery to see if one is better for patients. If you are having heart surgery, you may be able to join.
