First seen May 02, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study looked at 80 people having major abdominal cancer surgery, either with a small camera (laparoscopic) or a large cut (open). Doctors used a thin tube placed in the food pipe to measure heart function while patients were lying flat or tilted head-down. The goal was to see if position changes affect heart measurements, helping guide fluid therapy during surgery.
