NCT ID NCT07614438

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

Summary

This study compares two drugs, vasopressin and norepinephrine, given during and after surgery to remove chronic blood clots from the lungs. The goal is to see which drug better controls blood pressure in the lungs without harming the rest of the body. About 90 adults scheduled for this surgery will take part, and their lung artery pressure will be measured right after the operation.

Active substance

Vasopressin

What this could lead to

If vasopressin works better, it could become the preferred drug to manage blood pressure during and after this lung surgery, potentially improving recovery.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-phase trial with only 90 participants at one hospital. The drug may not show a clear benefit over the standard treatment, and results may not apply to all patients.
