ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is exploring whether listening to recitals of the Holy Quran can help reduce the chances of developing delirium after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. Delirium is a sudden change in mental status that can happen after surgery, and this study aims to see if the calming effect of the Quran can make a difference. While previous research has looked at other non-medical methods to prevent delirium, this is the first study specifically focusing on the Holy Quran.

To be eligible for the trial, participants need to be at least 18 years old, scheduled for elective CABG surgery, and in stable health during the study. Those who have a history of certain medical conditions, like liver disease or dementia, or are on specific medications that could affect mental clarity, won't be able to participate. If you join the trial, you can expect to listen to the Quran during your recovery, and researchers will monitor your mental status to see if this practice helps prevent delirium. This study is currently not recruiting participants, but it aims to provide valuable insights into non-drug approaches to support recovery after heart surgery.
