U.S., Oct. 2 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07852390) titled 'Postoperative Pacing for Cardiac Efficiency' on Sept. 24.
Brief Summary: The goal of this study is to determine whether temporarily increasing a child's heart rate after heart surgery can improve blood flow and oxygen supply to the body's tissues. The study will compare temporary atrial pacing at 10 and 20 beats per minute above the child's natural heart rate with the child's natural heart rate without pacing.
Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two schedules for these pacing approaches. Each pacing approach has previously been used as part of routine care after heart surgery. The study will test whether temporarily inc...
