This is a large research study that will follow 10,000 patients before and after they have heart surgery. Researchers will collect information about your physical health, emotional well-being, and social circumstances to understand which factors influence how well people recover and what complications may develop after surgery.
Heart surgery is a major procedure, and doctors want to better understand what predicts good versus difficult recoveries. By studying thousands of patients over time, researchers hope to develop better ways to predict complications, manage pain, and decide on treatments like blood transfusions—ultimately improving care for future cardiac surgery patients.

You will be enrolled before your scheduled heart surgery and followed through one year after the procedure. Researchers will collect information from your medical records, ask you questions about your physical and emotional health, and track how you recover over time. Most of this happens alongside your regular medical care—you're not receiving an experimental drug or procedure, but rather helping doctors understand outcomes from surgery you're already having.
