Heart surgery fluid practices under review: albumin or not?
NCT ID NCT06322537
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study examines how doctors give fluids to adults during heart surgery, specifically comparing the use of albumin (a blood product) versus crystalloids (salt solutions). Researchers will review records from 505 patients across multiple hospitals to see what fluids are used, when, and why. The goal is to understand current practices and outcomes, not to test a new treatment.
