Preventing hernias after emergency surgery
This study tests a way to prevent hernias after emergency belly surgery. If you are having emergency surgery for certain conditions, you may be able to join.
KielceAges 18–100 - NCT07675993Recruiting
Sleep and anesthesia in non-heart surgery

Yinchuan, NingxiaAges 18–65 - NCT07107555Enrolling by invitation
Study of severe tissue infections
This trial studies a rare but serious infection called necrotizing soft-tissue infection (NSTI), which destroys tissue quickly. It looks at how patients are treated in hospitals across Europe to improve care.
BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07677319Recruiting
Heart surgery after age 75: a study on recovery
This study looks at how well people aged 75 and older recover after emergency heart surgery. It uses a special test to measure frailty and quality of life for one year after surgery.
Bordeaux, FranceAges 75 years+ - NCT07052461Recruiting
Blood flow study in ICU patients after heart surgery
This study looks at blood flow patterns in patients after non-emergency heart surgery to see if they relate to recovery in the ICU. It uses a special ultrasound to check blood vessels in the belly and leg.
BaselAges 18 years+ - NCT06220058Recruiting
Preventing hernias after emergency colorectal surgery
This study compares two ways of closing the belly after emergency colorectal surgery to see which one better prevents hernias. If you need this type of surgery, you may be able to join.
Girona, CataloniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07557576Recruiting
Pain management approaches for children having cleft surgery
This study compares two types of anesthesia (with and without opioid painkillers) for children undergoing cleft lip or palate surgery. The goal is to see which approach better controls pain after surgery and reduces agitation as the child wakes up.
ZagrebAges 3 months–7 years - NCT05477680Recruiting
Measuring brain shift during surgery using navigation
This study tests whether a special brain-navigation method can better measure how the brain moves during surgery for certain brain conditions. If it works, it may help surgeons avoid mistakes caused by brain shifting while you are under anesthesia.
MoscowAges 18–100 - NCT06867302Recruiting
Study on dexmedetomidine for agitation after nose surgery
This trial tests if a medicine called dexmedetomidine can help prevent agitation after nose surgery. You may be eligible if you are a healthy adult having planned nose surgery.
Al Fayyum, Faiyum GovernorateAges 18–50 - 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 - NCT06614010RecruitingPhase 1
Testing drugs for hip replacement recovery
This trial studies how giving a sedative drug (dexmedetomidine) through different routes, combined with a numbing shot for the hip, can help reduce confusion and agitation right after hip replacement surgery. The goal is to find which method works best for a smoother wake-up.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–65 - NCT07565116Recruiting
Numbing Nose Spray vs. Calming Liquid Before Pediatric Surgery
This trial compares two safe, common ways to help children relax before surgery: a medicine sprayed in the nose versus a medicine given by mouth. The goal is to see which one works better and is easier for kids.
Diyarbakır, Outside of the USAges 2–10 - NCT06543134Recruiting
Body temperature and waking confusion after surgery
This study looks at how getting cold during surgery (hypothermia) might affect how confused or restless you feel when waking up from anesthesia. Researchers want to find ways to prevent these side effects and make your recovery smoother.
Kocaeli, IzmitAges 18–65 - NCT06545786Recruiting
Brain monitoring during surgery to prevent confusion
This study uses a special brain-wave monitor during your surgery to see if it can predict confusion or memory problems afterward. It may help you and your doctors better understand your recovery.
Moscow, Moscow OblastAges 18 years+ - NCT07193836Enrolling by invitation
Lidocaine for easier recovery after laparoscopic surgery
This study tests whether giving lidocaine (a numbing medicine) through an IV can help you wake up more smoothly and with less discomfort after laparoscopic gallbladder or gynecologic surgery. If you are generally healthy and having one of these specific surgeries, you may be a good fit.
Yinchuan, NingxiaAges 18–70 - NCT06818942Recruiting
