Coronary artery bypass grafting

This study tests whether adding Vitamin C, Omega-3 fatty acids, lignin, and lactulose to standard care can improve recovery in 108 adults after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Participants will take the supplements daily for 10 weeks starting 15 days after surgery. The go…

This study looks at how long people should take a combination of two blood thinners (ticagrelor and aspirin) after coronary artery bypass surgery to keep the new vein grafts open. 300 patients will be randomly assigned to take the combination for 3, 6, or 12 months, then switch t…

This study compares two surgical techniques for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). One uses only arteries (total arterial grafting), while the other uses a mix of artery and vein grafts (conventional mixed grafting). The goal is to see which approach keeps grafts open longer…

This study tests whether a smartphone app powered by artificial intelligence can help adults recover after heart surgery. 500 patients will either use the app plus standard care or standard care alone. The app gives personalized advice on medications, spotting complications early…

This trial asks whether discharge education personalized by artificial intelligence can improve recovery after coronary artery bypass grafting. About 80 adults who have had elective bypass surgery will be randomly assigned to receive either standard discharge education or standar…

This study tests two different computer alerts designed to encourage doctors to refer heart patients to cardiac rehab. About 7,000 adults who had heart surgery or a stent in the past year will take part. The goal is to see if these simple reminders increase the number of people w…

This study looks at 1,000 adults who had planned heart bypass surgery. Researchers will review existing hospital records to see if changes in routine blood tests (like inflammation and kidney markers) in the first hours after surgery can identify patients at higher risk for compl…
