Heart surgery fluid fight: aminophylline vs. furosemide

NCT ID NCT07348510

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study compares two drugs, aminophylline and furosemide, to see which one helps adults produce more urine after heart surgery. About 106 patients having elective heart procedures will be randomly assigned to receive one of the drugs. The main goal is to measure urine output two hours after the heart-lung machine is stopped, with follow-up checks at 8 and 48 hours.
