NCT ID NCT07576569
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tests whether a structured nursing program—including education, emotional support, and follow-up calls—can help heart bypass patients and their caregivers adapt better during recovery at home. About 40 adults who recently had heart surgery and their primary caregivers will be randomly assigned to receive either the extra nursing support or usual care. The goal is to see if the program improves how well patients and caregivers cope physically and emotionally.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
structured nursing intervention (education, emotional support, follow-up care)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a simple, low-cost way to help heart surgery patients and their caregivers recover better at home.
What could go wrong
This is a very small pilot study with only 40 people, so results may not apply to everyone. It tests a behavioral program, not a drug, so any benefit is likely modest.
