This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing whether raising your legs passively during off-pump heart bypass surgery can help manage your blood pressure without needing as much noradrenaline, a medication that tightens blood vessels. Researchers want to see if this simple positioning technique works as well as or better than using medication alone to keep your blood pressure stable during the surgery.
During heart bypass surgery, doctors need to carefully manage blood pressure to keep patients safe. This study exists to see if a gentler, non-medication approach using body positioning could reduce the need for this treatment and potentially lower side effects.

You will undergo heart bypass surgery at a hospital in France. During your surgery, you will be randomly assigned to either have your legs raised passively at a 45-degree angle to help manage blood pressure (with medication only if needed), or to receive medication alone. Your blood pressure and heart function will be carefully monitored during surgery and for 30 days afterward to compare how well each approach works.
