Could a greener anesthesia method be safer for your heart?

NCT ID NCT07571980

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

Summary

This study looks at 128 adults having gallbladder surgery to see if using a low-flow (more eco-friendly) versus normal-flow sevoflurane anesthesia changes heart electrical signals linked to dangerous rhythms. Researchers will measure these signals before, during, and after surgery. The goal is to understand if the amount of fresh gas flow affects heart stability, not to test a new treatment.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

sevoflurane

What this could lead to

If it works, this could help anesthesiologists choose safer anesthesia methods to reduce heart rhythm risks during surgery.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early observational study, not a treatment trial. Results may not apply to all patients or surgeries, and it only measures electrical changes, not actual heart problems.
