Recruiting studies
- NCT03643718Recruiting
Emergency surgery and trauma patient registry online
This trial is a web-based registry that collects information about people who need emergency surgical or non-surgical treatment for sudden (acute) problems. Your information can help doctors better understand and improve emergency care and decision-making.
PisaAges Any age - NCT05623176Recruiting
Study fairness in emergency surgery care during emergency laparotomy
This study looks at outcomes and whether emergency general surgery care is delivered fairly. It may help improve how hospitals support people having urgent abdominal surgery.
StockholmAges 16 years+ - NCT07048899Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Irrisept for emergency surgery patients
This trial tests if using Irrisept (a special wound-cleaning solution) during emergency surgery can help prevent infections. It includes adults who need an open surgery for an urgent stomach or bowel problem.
Tyler, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05800639Recruiting
Testing brain-wave patterns during pediatric anesthesia awakening
This study looks at brain-wave activity (measured with sensors) in young children during and after general anesthesia for planned eye surgery. It may help doctors understand why some children become very upset or confused as they wake up.
SeoulAges 2–8 - NCT06879600Recruiting
High-flow oxygen for emergency surgery patients with full stomachs
This trial tests if using high-flow oxygen through the nose before surgery helps patients who need emergency surgery and have a full stomach. It may make oxygen levels safer during the start of anesthesia.
Viet Tri, Phu ThoAges 18 years+ - NCT07435675Recruiting
Nerve block to prevent agitation after ear surgery in children
This study tests if a nerve block behind the ear can help children ages 5–14 stay calm and comfortable after middle ear surgery. It may reduce confusion and restlessness when waking up from anesthesia.
Al Fayyum, Faiyum GovernorateAges 5–14 - NCT06092671Recruiting
Can FPCA prevent confusion in young kids after surgery?
This study tests whether a medicine called FPCA can prevent sudden confusion (delirium) in young children after surgery. If your child is having short surgery with mask anesthesia for the first time, this study may help them have a smoother recovery.
Wenzhou, ZhejiangAges 2–6 - NCT05824338RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing ropivacaine spinal anesthesia for lower back surgery
This early study tests whether using ropivacaine (a local numbing medicine) in spinal anesthesia is safe and workable for certain lower back operations. If you qualify, it may help doctors refine anesthesia choices for your type of surgery.
New Westminster, British ColumbiaAges 19–80 - NCT06454305Recruiting
Breathing exercises after abdominal surgery
This study tests two breathing techniques (ACBT and blow bottle) to help people recover lung function after abdominal surgery under general anesthesia. If you have trouble coughing up mucus or need extra oxygen after surgery, you may benefit.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 30–50 - NCT07510516Recruiting
Verbal reminders to reduce confusion after anesthesia
This study tests whether giving a simple verbal reminder (like telling you where you are) after anesthesia can help reduce confusion or agitation when waking up. It is for adults having laparoscopic abdominal surgery under a specific inhaled anesthetic.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 18–70 - NCT02708836Recruiting
Tests safer airway method to reduce anesthesia “waking up” issues
This study looks at whether a combined airway method during general anesthesia can reduce unpleasant or risky “emergence” problems as you wake up. It is for people having planned laparoscopic (camera) surgery and who can follow fasting and consent rules.
Hershey, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07647510RecruitingPhase 3
Testing Claseprubart for Generalized Myasthenia Gravis
This study tests whether a new drug called claseprubart can help adults with generalized myasthenia gravis (a condition where muscles get weak and tired easily). The drug works by targeting part of the immune system that damages muscles.
Fayetteville, North CarolinaAges 18–80 - NCT07462195RecruitingPhase 4
Dexmedetomidine for smoother recovery after thyroid surgery
This trial tests whether adding a medicine called dexmedetomidine during thyroid surgery helps you wake up more calmly and comfortably. It may reduce side effects like confusion or shakiness after anesthesia.
HanoiAges 18–65 - NCT07571707Recruiting
Lollipops to Reduce Confusion After Surgery in Young Children
This study tests whether giving children a lollipop after surgery helps prevent confusion and agitation as they wake up from anesthesia. Emergence delirium—when children are disoriented and upset after anesthesia—is common, and the researchers want to see if this simple comfort measure helps.
Denpasar, BaliAges 2–6 - NCT06743243Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Tegoprazan for planned surgery patients under general anesthesia
This trial tests whether a stomach-acid-reducing drug (tegoprazan) helps prevent complications during planned surgeries under general anesthesia. It is for adults aged 20–69 with a non-emergency surgery and a BMI under 35.
SeoulAges 20–69 - NCT07675993Recruiting
Sleep and anesthesia in non-heart surgery
This study looks at how sleep problems before surgery affect the amount of anesthesia needed and how well you recover after non-cardiac surgery. The goal is to help doctors personalize care for better recovery.
Yinchuan, NingxiaAges 18–65 - NCT03774420Recruiting
Study of memory and thinking changes after breast surgery
This trial looks at whether certain anesthesia medications and airway devices are linked to short-term memory or thinking problems after breast surgery. If you’re having breast surgery under general anesthesia, your care team may compare outcomes to learn how to reduce “post-op cognitive dysfunction.”
Treviso, TVAges 18 years+ - NCT04201704Recruiting
Less IV fluids for children after trauma
This trial studies whether giving children less fluid through a vein after serious injury helps them recover safely. Children are enrolled soon after arrival to the ICU so the team can compare outcomes between different fluid amounts.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 6 months–15 years - NCT07339618Recruiting
Sound and touch for better recovery from anesthesia
This trial tests whether playing sounds or using gentle touch during recovery from anesthesia can help you wake up more smoothly after laparoscopic abdominal surgery. It is a non-drug approach that may reduce side effects of anesthesia.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–65 - NCT06846983Recruiting
Testing a new way to predict numbing success for children's surgery
This trial checks if a simple monitor reading (peripheral perfusion index) can help doctors know if a numbing shot (caudal block) will work well for children having belly or pelvic surgery. It may lead to better pain control during and after surgery.
Cairo, AbbasiaAges 1–5 - NCT06104059Recruiting
Pain management during planned laparoscopic surgery
This trial tests a new way to monitor pain during laparoscopic surgery. It may help your doctor adjust pain medicines to keep you comfortable.
Athens, AtticaAges 18–70 - NCT02975310Recruiting
In-clinic endoscopy surgery for chronic sinus polyps
This trial tests an in-clinic (not hospital) endoscopic procedure to remove nasal polyps in people with chronic sinus inflammation, after usual medicines haven’t helped. It may help reduce nasal blockage and improve sinus symptoms, while comparing safety and outcomes after the procedure.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07287293Recruiting
Suctioning vs no suctioning when waking from anesthesia
This trial compares two ways of managing your breathing tube when you wake up from general anesthesia: suctioning the tube or not. It aims to see which method is more comfortable and safer for you after surgery.
Samut SakhonAges 18 years+ - NCT06740201RecruitingPhase 4
Testing a new anesthesia drug in elective surgery
This study tests how well a computer model predicts the dose of a new anesthetic called cipepofol during planned surgeries that last at least an hour. The goal is to see if the model gives the right amount of drug for safe and effective anesthesia.
