New heart solution tested in Kids' surgery: could it offer better protection?
NCT ID NCT07381530
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study compares two solutions, Custodiol and Custodiol-N, used to protect the heart during surgery for children with congenital heart defects. About 100 children will receive one of the two solutions while on a heart-lung machine. The goal is to see which one is safer and better at preventing heart damage.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Custodiol-N (a cardioplegia solution)
What this could lead to
If Custodiol-N proves safer or more protective, it could become a preferred option to protect children's hearts during surgery for birth defects.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial that is currently suspended, so results may be delayed or never completed. The study compares two similar solutions, so a major breakthrough is unlikely.
