Measuring oxygen levels in the heart during open-heart surgery

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study aims to assess the safety and performance of a device that measures myocardial oxygen saturation during open-heart surgery. It will record spectrometric data to analyze how these measurements correlate with clinical events and parameters during the procedure. The study will monitor the depth of ischemia and its relationship to postoperative heart function and morbidity. A qualified monitor will oversee the trial to ensure compliance with Good Clinical Practice and quality standards.
