Spinal vs general anesthesia for hip fracture surgery in older adults
This study compares two types of anesthesia—spinal (awake, lower body numb) versus general (completely asleep)—for people 65 and older having hip fracture surgery. The goal is to see which is better for preventing lung complications after surgery.

Anesthesia safety during airway scopes in children with tracheostomy
This study looks at problems that may happen during anesthesia (medicine to put you to sleep) when children with a tracheostomy have a routine scope to check their airway. It aims to make these procedures safer for kids like you.
SolnaAges Up to 18 years - NCT05358535RecruitingPhase 3
Testing two common anesthesia options during endoscopy
This trial compares two IV anesthesia medicines (propofol and etomidate) during endoscopic procedures. It may help your care team choose the safest, most effective anesthesia approach for patients who need anesthesia for endoscopy.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06576596Recruiting
Oxygen during breathing tube placement in children
This study tests a method to keep children breathing easily while their airway is being prepared for surgery. It may help children who are 0-6 years old and having planned surgery under general anesthesia.
Heidelberg, Baden-WurttembergAges birth–6 years - NCT07284615Recruiting
Nerve Block vs. Wound Injection for Hip Replacement Pain
This trial compares two pain-relief methods after hip replacement surgery: a nerve block (numbing the hip area) versus a numbing injection into the wound. The goal is to see which provides better pain control.
Cinisello Balsamo, MilanoAges 18 years+ - NCT06403163Recruiting
Transfusion monitoring during anesthesia
This trial looks at patients who received a drug or product to help with bleeding (hemostasis) during anesthesia. It aims to understand how these products are used and if they are safe.
AnderlechtAges Any age - NCT04331249Recruiting
Monitoring heart device during and around your procedure
This trial looks at how to manage and check implanted heart devices (pacemakers/defibrillators) during and around a planned procedure. It may help teams improve safety and decision-making during surgery or catheter procedures.
Fürth, BavariaAges 18 years+ - NCT06430957Recruiting
Sleep apnea risk after dental surgery under general anesthesia
This study checks dental patients for the risk of sleep apnea before surgery and looks at whether that risk is linked to problems after general anesthesia. It may help you understand your own risk and improve safety.
KayseriAges 18–80 - NCT05195697Recruiting
Study of outcomes for adults needing urgent surgery
This study looks at what factors affect outcomes for adults admitted for urgent (acute) surgical care at Skåne University Hospital. It may help the hospital improve care and understand which patients are at higher or lower risk.
Malmö, Skåne CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT07854704Recruiting
Controlled body temperature during long abdominal surgery
This study tests a method to keep the body temperature stable during long abdominal surgery. It may help reduce complications and improve recovery.
Saint PetersburgAges 18 years+ - NCT05233462Recruiting
Compare two spinal anesthesia bupivacaine dose methods for C-sections
This trial looks at whether adjusting the dose of bupivacaine by height works better than using a standard dose for spinal anesthesia during planned C-sections. It may help improve safety and comfort by aiming for the right level of numbing effect.
CaenAges 18–45 - NCT04256798RecruitingPhase 3
Respiratory care after high-risk abdominal surgery
This trial looks at a breathing-focused care plan given around the time of major abdominal surgery to improve recovery and outcomes. You may be eligible if you’re having a large midline abdominal incision and can be followed after surgery.
Botucatu, São PauloAges 10–100 - NCT06453525Recruiting
Automated assessment of difficult airway before surgery
This study tests an automated tool to help doctors assess your airway before surgery, aiming to make breathing tube placement safer. It is for adults who are already scheduled for general anesthesia with a breathing tube.
LausanneAges 18–100 - NCT06166706Recruiting
Ventilation methods in children during anesthesia
This study looks at how children are ventilated (helped to breathe) during surgery. It will help doctors understand current practices and improve care for young patients.
PerthAges Up to 16 years - NCT07573150Recruiting
Pupil Measurements to Predict Breathing Problems After Surgery in Children
This study tests whether measuring how a child's pupils (the dark circles in the eyes) respond to light can predict which children might have breathing problems after receiving pain medication during tonsil surgery. The goal is to help doctors catch and prevent serious breathing issues before they happen.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 3–17 - NCT07332806Recruiting
When to remove the breathing tube after robot surgery
This study looks at whether removing the breathing tube in the operating room versus the recovery room affects how quickly the operating room is ready for the next surgery. If you are having robot-assisted surgery with general anesthesia, you may be able to join.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT04362709Recruiting
Post-surgery care study for people having brain surgery
This trial studies how to manage care after anesthesia for people having neurosurgery at Beijing Tiantan Hospital. It may help improve comfort and recovery planning after brain surgery.
BeijingAges Any age - NCT06268080Recruiting
Sedation depth and mental recovery after surgery for older adults
This trial tests whether monitoring how deeply you sleep during anesthesia helps prevent confusion and memory problems after surgery. It is for older adults who can give consent and are having a major operation.
Grafton, AucklandAges 55 years+ - NCT07059624Recruiting
Femoral artery line placement in children having heart surgery
This study looks at how to put a small tube (arterial line) into the leg artery of children having heart surgery. It is meant to help doctors find the best way to do this safely.
BeirutAges Up to 12 years - NCT06962007Recruiting
Jaw clenching after sugammadex for muscle relaxation reversal
This trial tests whether a drug called sugammadex, which reverses muscle relaxation from anesthesia, might cause jaw clenching in some people. The study will watch for this effect during routine surgery to better understand the risk.
Iksan, Jeonbuk-doAges 19–70 - NCT05759299Recruiting
Airway management study during anesthesia with intubation
This study observes how breathing tube placement (intubation) and other airway care are done during general anesthesia in the operating room and in other anesthesia settings. It may help improve airway management practices in different clinical environments, but you would typically not receive a new treatment as part of an experimental trial.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for anesthesia complication?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 49 recruiting anesthesia complication studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a anesthesia complication trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a anesthesia complication trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
