Popis: Background Adults undergoing heart surgery are particularly vulnerable to respiratory complications, including COVID‐19. Immunization can significantly reduce this risk; however, the effect of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) on immunization status is unknown. We sought to evaluate the effect of CPB on COVID‐19 vaccination antibody concentration after cardiac surgery. Methods and Results This prospective observational clinical trial evaluated adult participants undergoing cardiac surgery requiring CPB at a single institution. All participants received a full primary COVID‐19 vaccination series before CPB. SARS‐CoV‐2 spike protein‐specific antibody concentrations were measured before CPB (pre‐CPB measurement), 24 hours following CPB (postoperative day 1 measurement), and approximately 1 month following their procedure. Relationships between demographic or surgical variables and change in antibody concentration were assessed via linear regression. A total of 77 participants were enrolled in the study and underwent surgery. Among all participants, mean antibody concentration was significantly decreased on postoperative day 1, relative to pre‐CPB levels (−2091 AU/mL, P
