AI videos may cut hospital trips after heart surgery
NCT ID NCT07036926
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether watching an AI-made video before and after mitral valve repair surgery can reduce unplanned calls, emails, or visits to the doctor. About 100 adults scheduled for this heart surgery will be randomly assigned to receive the video or standard instructions. The goal is to see if the video helps patients feel more prepared and reduces extra healthcare use.
