Tiny blood samples, big clues: can we predict clots in newborn heart surgery?
NCT ID NCT06434207
First seen Nov 12, 2025 · Last updated Jun 22, 2026 · Updated 29 times
Summary
This study will collect leftover blood samples from 10 newborns with severe heart defects who have surgery at Boston Children's Hospital. Researchers want to understand why these babies are more likely to develop dangerous blood clots after surgery. They will look at tiny molecules called microRNAs in the blood to find patterns linked to clotting and inflammation.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward ways to predict or prevent dangerous blood clots in newborns with heart disease.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, early observational study with only 10 participants. It is not testing a treatment, so it may not lead to direct changes in care.
