Blood product showdown: which stops bleeding faster in heart surgery?
NCT ID NCT06144125
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This trial compares two blood products—prothrombin complex concentrate (PCC) and fresh frozen plasma (FFP)—for controlling bleeding in people undergoing heart valve surgery. Doctors use a special test to guide which product to give and measure how quickly bleeding stops. The goal is to see which approach leads to faster bleeding control and less need for additional blood transfusions.

What this could lead to
If one product works faster or better, it could improve bleeding control and reduce transfusions during heart surgery.
