NCT ID NCT06786819

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether a smartphone app that guides patients through a rapid recovery program (ERAS) can reduce time in the hospital after heart bypass surgery. About 480 adults in Brazil will use the app, which starts before surgery and continues for 30 days after discharge. The goal is to see if this digital approach leads to shorter hospital stays and fewer complications.
