AI heart test may spot hidden danger in older cancer surgery patients

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jul 23, 2026 · Updated 3 times

Summary

This study will enroll 200 adults aged 60 or older who are scheduled for major surgery for urologic cancer. Researchers want to see if an artificial intelligence analysis of a standard heart test (ECG) taken before surgery can predict whether a patient will suffer heart injury or a major heart event within 30 days after the operation. No treatments or interventions are given—this is purely an observational study to gather information.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a simple, low-cost way to identify patients at high risk of heart complications after surgery, helping doctors take preventive steps.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It only looks at whether AI can predict risk—it does not test any intervention to reduce that risk. Results may not apply to all patients or settings.
