New Recruiting Trial: Anthocyanin-Rich Table Grape Powder for Prophylaxis of Post-Operative Atrial Fibrillation
WHY IT MATTERS
This trial offers patients undergoing heart surgery a potential natural option to reduce their risk of developing irregular heartbeats after the operation, which affects up to 50% of post-operative cardiac patients.
Researchers at the University of Michigan are testing whether a powder made from grapes rich in anthocyanins (natural plant compounds) can help prevent atrial fibrillation—a heart rhythm problem—after heart surgery. This early-stage trial is now accepting patients. The study will test if this natural supplement is safe and if it works better than a placebo (fake treatment).

ASK YOUR DOCTOR
If you're scheduled for heart surgery, ask your cardiologist whether you might be eligible for this trial and whether it could be appropriate for your situation.
