Breathing machine settings during heart surgery may predict lung trouble
NCT ID NCT07639489
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study will observe 110 adults having planned heart bypass surgery. Researchers will record settings on the breathing machine during surgery and check if patients develop lung complications like pneumonia or need a breathing tube for too long. No new treatments are given—the goal is to see if a measure called 'mechanical power' is linked to these problems.
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 help doctors adjust breathing machines during heart surgery to reduce lung complications.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It only looks for a link, so it won't directly improve outcomes. Results may not apply to all patients.
