Eco-Friendly anesthesia could speed recovery after heart surgery
NCT ID NCT07508865
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a new anesthesia method for heart bypass surgery is better for patients and the planet. About 116 adults having planned bypass surgery will receive either the new technique (which uses fewer drugs and a nerve block) or standard anesthesia. Researchers will compare how quickly patients wake up, the cost, and the environmental impact.
