Ankara, AnkaraAges 18 years+ - NCT07675850RecruitingPhase 4
Testing computer-guided dosing for general anesthesia
This study tests a computerized dosing system for a sedation medicine called remimazolam during general anesthesia. It is for adults having planned surgery and aims to see if the computer-guided dosing is safe and effective.
Seoul, Jongno-guAges 19–79 - NCT06334549RecruitingPhase 4
Vasopressor study on brain oxygen during surgery
This study tests how a blood-pressure medicine called a vasopressor affects oxygen levels in the brain during general anesthesia for abdominal surgery. It may help patients understand the safest way to manage blood pressure during their operation.
Dalian, LiaoningAges 18–80 - NCT07638306Recruiting
Neck Vein Ultrasound and Kidney Function After Abdominal Surgery
This study uses ultrasound to look at a vein in your neck before and after major abdominal surgery to understand how surgery affects your kidneys. Researchers hope this simple imaging technique might help predict and prevent kidney problems after surgery.
Târgu Mureş, Mureș CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT07642765Recruiting
Frailty Score and Blood Pressure Changes During Surgery
This study looks at a simple scoring system (EASIX) that predicts whether older or frail patients will experience dangerous blood pressure drops when anesthesia is given before surgery. Understanding this risk might help doctors better protect vulnerable patients during their operations.
KonyaAges 18 years+ - NCT07607249Enrolling by invitation
Floating Needle Treatment for Stomach Issues After Knee Surgery
This trial tests whether a traditional Chinese acupuncture technique called 'floating needle' can help with stomach and bowel problems that sometimes happen after knee surgery under general anesthesia. You would receive this treatment along with standard post-surgery care to see if it reduces nausea, constipation, or other digestive issues.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT07588165Recruiting
Measuring Pain During Emergency Breathing Tube Placement
This study tests a pain-monitoring device during emergency anesthesia for stomach or abdominal surgery. Researchers want to see how well the device (called ANI) detects pain when doctors quickly put a breathing tube in your airway.
MonacoAges 18 years+ - NCT02535936Recruiting
Brain plasticity study after rhizotomy surgery for spastic diplegia
This study looks at how the brain adapts after selective dorsal rhizotomy surgery in children with spastic diplegia. It may help doctors better understand recovery and treatment effects over time.
Houston, TexasAges 3–18 - 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 - NCT06728163Recruiting
VR and Music for Gynecological Surgery
This study tests whether using virtual reality (VR) and music during gynecological surgery can help reduce anxiety or pain. You may be eligible if you are an adult undergoing gynecological surgery under general anesthesia and are in good enough health to participate.
SeoulAges 20–65 - NCT07564531Recruiting
Safe sedation for heart catheterization in children
This study tests whether a combination of two sedative medications (dexmedetomidine and ketamine) works safely and effectively to keep children calm and still during heart catheterization—a procedure where a thin tube is guided through blood vessels to the heart for diagnosis or treatment.
HanoiAges Up to 18 years - NCT06759623Recruiting
Lung function and anesthesia in bariatric surgery
This study checks how well your lungs work after you receive anesthesia (sleep medicine) for weight-loss surgery. It will help doctors choose the best anesthetic for people with obesity.
GdanskAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT07506655Enrolling by invitation
Comparing head positions for placing a breathing tube during surgery
This study compares two ways of positioning your head and neck when placing a breathing tube for surgery. It tests whether using a custom pillow in a 'ramp' position works better than the standard 'sniffing' position. The goal is to make intubation safer and easier for patients with a certain body type.
Karachi, SindhAges 18–60 - NCT07495436Recruiting
Video vs. direct laryngoscopy for children's breathing tubes
This study compares two ways of placing a breathing tube in children during surgery: using a video camera laryngoscope or a standard direct laryngoscope. If your child is having a planned surgery and needs a breathing tube, this trial may help determine which method is safer and easier.
Santiago de Compostela, A CORUÑAAges birth–16 hours - NCT07461779RecruitingPhase 4
Oxygen to the healthy lung during lung surgery
This study is testing whether giving extra oxygen to the lung that is not being operated on (the non-dependent lung) during surgery can reduce problems after lung surgery. If you are having lung surgery, this might help you recover better.
MadridAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT06101511Recruiting
Breathing tube pressure for safer abdominal surgery
This trial is testing if using less air pressure from the breathing machine during abdominal surgery can help prevent lung complications. If you are at higher risk for breathing problems after surgery, this study may help find a safer way to manage your breathing during the operation.
Amsterdam, NoordhollandAges 18–100 - NCT07451470Recruiting
Comparing two airway devices for stomach air in children during short surgeries
This trial compares two devices used to help children breathe during surgery (LarySeal Pro and Ambu AuraGain). It measures how much air gets into the stomach, which can cause discomfort. It is for children aged 6–12 having short elective surgeries (1 hour or less).
Cairo, Cairo GovernorateAges 6–10 - NCT07415603Enrolling by invitation
Comparing two ways to monitor blood pressure in surgical patients
This study compares two methods to measure blood pressure (PPV and PVI) when you are lying on your back or on your stomach during surgery under general anesthesia. The goal is to see which method works better in each position.
Columbus, OhioAges Any age - NCT07396636Recruiting
Using machine learning to manage low blood pressure during surgery
This study tests whether an AI tool can help doctors better manage low blood pressure during planned surgeries. If you are having an elective surgery with general anesthesia and need an arterial line for monitoring, this trial may be for you.
