New heart surgery tubes put to the test
NCT ID NCT07354841
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests new plastic tubes (cannulas) used to connect patients to a heart-lung machine during heart surgery. The trial has two parts: first, a small safety check, then a larger comparison with existing tubes. About 80 adults having planned heart surgery will take part to see if the new tubes are as safe and work as well as current ones.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
PVC arterial and venous cannulas (medical devices used during heart-lung bypass)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a safe and effective alternative cannula for use during heart surgery with a heart-lung machine.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage, small trial (80 participants) testing a device, not a new drug. The results may not apply to all patients or surgeries, and device-related complications like clotting or bleeding are possible.
