Heart surgery fluid practices under the microscope

NCT ID NCT06322537

Summary

This study aims to understand how doctors currently use different fluids during heart surgery. Researchers will look back at the medical records of 505 adult heart surgery patients to see when and why they received albumin (an expensive blood product) versus standard IV fluids. The goal is to map current practices to help design better future studies on fluid management.
