Summary
This study tests whether giving a thyroid hormone pill (levothyroxine) to people with mild underactive thyroid before heart bypass surgery can lower their risk of serious heart problems like heart attack, stroke, or irregular heartbeat. About 338 adults scheduled for bypass surgery will be randomly assigned to receive the hormone or not. Researchers will track their health for up to five years to see if the treatment improves outcomes.
