Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cardiovascular Complication and Pulmonary Embolism, run by University of Thessaly at 1 site in Greece.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events (time frame: 1month postoperatively). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
