First seen Dec 12, 2025 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 20 times

Summary

This study looks at whether monitoring blood pressure from the femoral artery (in the groin) is better than the usual radial artery (in the wrist) for people having planned heart surgery. The goal is to see if femoral monitoring leads to less use of strong blood pressure medicines and fewer complications. About 340 adults will take part, and their blood pressure will be tracked during and after surgery.
