Blood clues to brain harm in child heart surgery
NCT ID NCT06899971
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether certain proteins in the blood can signal brain injury in children who have heart surgery with a heart-lung machine. Researchers will measure these proteins before and after surgery and compare them to the child's brain function. The goal is to find a simple way to detect and understand brain injury in these young patients.
