NCT ID NCT06659289
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tested a device called Efferon LPS that filters blood during heart surgery when a heart-lung machine is used. The goal was to see if it could prevent multiple organ failure, especially kidney damage. Only 14 people took part before the study was stopped, so the results are not reliable.

What this could lead to
If it works, this device could reduce the risk of organ failure and kidney damage after heart surgery.
