Smart fluid tracking may shield kidneys during heart surgery
NCT ID NCT06109714
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether using a special fluid management system (ACUMEN) during heart surgery can help prevent kidney damage. About 100 adults having bypass or valve surgery will be enrolled. Researchers will measure kidney injury markers and track how much fluid is given, aiming to find better ways to protect the kidneys.
