NCT ID NCT06539000
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 1000 adults who had heart surgery to create a tool that predicts if the right side of the heart will struggle afterward. The tool, called the RightScore, uses patient details and surgery factors to identify high-risk individuals. The goal is to help doctors monitor and treat these patients more carefully.
