Chilling discovery: hypothermia may skew brain monitors during bypass

NCT ID NCT07508579

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

Summary

This observational study looks at how lowering body temperature during heart-lung bypass surgery affects two common brain monitors (BIS and PSI). Researchers will track 60 adults undergoing planned coronary bypass surgery. The goal is to see if the monitors' readings change differently when the body is cooled, which could help doctors better gauge anesthesia depth.
