Face-Down recovery after heart surgery? new study investigates
NCT ID NCT07632027
First seen Jun 10, 2026 · Last updated Jun 10, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether placing patients face-down (prone) after heart surgery can improve right heart function. The idea is that lying prone may open collapsed lung areas, reducing pressure on the heart's right side. About 80 adults scheduled for heart surgery will be randomly assigned to lie face-down or face-up, and their heart function will be compared.
