Overview
Tab Title Description
Study type
ObservationalDescribes the nature of a clinical study. Types include:
- Observational study — observes people and measures outcomes without affecting results.
- Interventional study (clinical trial) — studies new tests, treatments, drugs, surgical procedures or devices.

About this study
The purpose of this study is to test if a reduction of hemoglobin leads to subclinical cardiac dysfunction in patients with known cardiovascular disease.
Participation eligibility
Participant eligibility includes age, gender, type and stage of disease, and previous treatments or health concerns. Guidelines differ from study to study, and identify who can or cannot participate. There is no guarantee that every individual who qualifies and wants to participate in a trial will be enrolled. Contact the study team to discuss study eligibility and potential participation.
Inclusion Criteria:
-
Adult patients (≥18 years) undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery and/or aortic valve replacement surgery and aortic arch surgery.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Presence of moderate to severe valvular disease other than aortic stenosis (stenosis or regurgitation)
- Presence of shock (SBP <90mmHg) or requirement of vasopressors or inotropes to support cardiac output or maintain systematic blood pressure
- Presence of severe left ventricular dysfunction (EF <35%)
- Mechanical circulatory support ( intra-aortic balloon pump, left ventricular assist device, impella)
- Patients with hearth rhythms other than sinus rhythm
