NCT ID NCT07361068
First seen Jan 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 19, 2026 · Updated 21 times
Summary
This study of 102 heart surgery patients examined whether drops in brain oxygen levels during surgery are linked to memory or thinking problems after the operation. Researchers used a special monitor to track brain oxygen and tested patients' thinking skills before and after surgery. The goal was to identify risk factors that could help prevent cognitive decline in future patients.
