Pre-Surgery drink aims to cut complications, but trial stops early
NCT ID NCT07359222
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This early-phase trial tested a nutritional medical food called Vis Pre-Surgery, given to adults before elective surgeries like heart or orthopedic procedures. The goal was to see if it could reduce anxiety, infections, nausea, and hospital stays. However, the study was terminated early, so we don't have enough data to know if it works.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Vis Pre-Surgery Medical Food (a nutritional medical food)
- What this could lead to
- If it worked, this could point toward a simple nutritional drink to help people recover faster and with fewer problems after surgery.
- What could go wrong
- This was a very early, small trial that was terminated, so we don't have clear results. It's uncertain if the medical food provides any real benefit.
