Robotic surgery heart risk study: can fragile patients handle the tilt?

NCT ID NCT06336746

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at how extreme head-down positioning (Trendelenburg) and gas inflation during robotic surgery affect the heart's ability to pump blood. Researchers will monitor 80 patients—some with normal heart function and some with heart failure—using a special probe and brain oxygen sensors. The goal is to identify which patients are at risk of serious circulatory problems during these procedures.
