Heart surgery recovery boosted by cutting common drugs
NCT ID NCT06349057
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether lowering the use of anticholinergic drugs—common in older adults and linked to confusion and frailty—before and after heart surgery can help patients recover better. Researchers studied 120 adults having elective coronary artery bypass surgery. They measured daily living skills and frailty after surgery to see if reducing these drugs made a difference.
