Clinical Trial: GLS in Difficult CPB Weaning

U.S., Feb. 6 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07390903) titled 'GLS in Difficult CPB Weaning' on Jan. 12.

Brief Summary: The goal of this observational study is to learn whether global longitudinal strain (GLS), measured by echocardiography, can predict difficulty separating from cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in adults undergoing elective cardiac surgery.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Can preoperative GLS measurement predict difficult separation from CPB?

* Are GLS values associated with outcomes such as intensive care unit (ICU) stay, hospital stay, cardiac biomarkers, or 30-day mortality?

Participants will:

* Undergo standard cardiac surgery requiring CPB

* Have echocardiogra...
