NCT ID NCT03891160
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether using a 3D-printed model of a child's heart helps surgeons plan a procedure to place a mechanical pump (VAD) in children with congenital heart disease and heart failure. About 36 children weighing over 3 kilograms will take part. The goal is to see if the model improves surgical precision and patient outcomes compared to standard planning.
