Can a simple fluid prevent dangerous drops in blood pressure during heart surgery?

NCT ID NCT07329660

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

Summary

This study tests whether giving a special fluid (colloid) before anesthesia can prevent blood pressure drops in 116 people undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Participants will receive either the colloid or a standard salt solution before anesthesia. The goal is to see which fluid keeps blood pressure more stable during the first 15 minutes after anesthesia starts.

Active substance

Hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4 and Lactate Ringer's Solution

What this could lead to

If it works, this could point toward a better way to keep blood pressure stable during TAVR anesthesia.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-stage trial (116 people) comparing two fluids, not a new treatment. The benefit may be small or not apply to all patients.
