Could belly pressure predict heart surgery outcomes?
NCT ID NCT07752082
First seen Aug 07, 2026 · Last updated Aug 07, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether increased pressure inside the abdomen, measured after open-heart surgery, is linked to a higher risk of complications or death. Researchers will measure this pressure in 100 adults at three key times during and after surgery. They will then compare recovery outcomes, such as time on a breathing tube, hospital stay, and complications, between patients with high and normal pressure. No treatment is given; the goal is simply to see if this measurement could help predict who needs extra care.
