NCT ID NCT05199025
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aims to find out if certain substances in the blood can help predict serious complications after high-risk surgeries like heart, lung, or colon operations. Researchers will collect blood samples from about 5,000 patients before and after surgery and track their recovery for 30 days. The goal is to create a tool that helps doctors identify patients at higher risk and improve their care. There is no direct treatment or benefit for participants, but the information gathered may help future patients.
