New ultrasound test may spot heart rhythm risks before surgery
NCT ID NCT07388108
First seen Feb 04, 2026 · Last updated Jun 22, 2026 · Updated 19 times
Summary
This study is testing whether a special heart ultrasound can predict who will develop atrial fibrillation after heart surgery. Researchers will measure how well the heart's upper chambers work together before surgery in 138 patients. They will then track patients during recovery to see if those with poor coordination are more likely to develop arrhythmias.

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 lead to a simple, non-invasive test to identify patients at high risk of arrhythmias after heart surgery, allowing for closer monitoring and earlier intervention.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage observational study, not a treatment trial. The new measurement method may not prove accurate enough to predict arrhythmias reliably in all patients.
