NCT ID NCT06156592

Summary

This study aimed to better understand how spinal anesthesia affects blood pressure and heart function in patients with severe aortic stenosis or mitral regurgitation undergoing valve replacement surgery. Researchers observed 44 patients, measuring their need for blood pressure support medications and using heart ultrasound to see real-time changes. The goal was to gather evidence to support or challenge traditional beliefs about the safety of this anesthesia technique for these specific heart conditions.
