Light sensor may spot kidney danger during heart surgery
NCT ID NCT07582393
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether a special light-based monitor (near-infrared spectroscopy) placed on the skin can help predict kidney injury after heart surgery. Researchers measured oxygen levels in the kidneys of 113 adults during surgery and checked if low levels were linked to later kidney problems. The goal is to find a simple, non-invasive way to catch kidney damage early.
