First seen Sep 30, 2025 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 26 times

Summary

This study looks at how often a specific lung pressure (airway opening pressure) is high in adults after heart surgery. Researchers will measure this pressure in 196 patients to see if it is linked to breathing problems after surgery. The goal is to learn more so doctors can personalize breathing support in the future. No new treatments are tested.
