Blood pressure monitoring during robot prostate surgery
This trial compares two ways to measure blood pressure during robot-assisted prostate surgery: a cuff on the arm (oscillometric) vs. a tiny tube in an artery (intraarterial). It aims to see if the cuff method is just as reliable, which could make monitoring simpler and less invasive.

Heat and moisture during lung surgery: a study
This study looks at whether a special device that adds heat and moisture to the air you breathe during surgery can help people who have lung surgery through small incisions (VATS). If you are having planned lung surgery that requires one-lung ventilation, you may be able to join.
Istanbul, IstanbulAges 18–75 - NCT06153563Recruiting

Saint-EtienneAges 45 years+ - NCT07571473Recruiting
Monitoring stress during abdominal hysterectomy surgery
This study tests a new monitoring system called CoreSys that tracks your body's stress response during abdominal hysterectomy (surgical removal of the uterus). The goal is to help doctors better manage pain and stress during your operation.
Rosario, Santa Fe ProvinceAges 18–70 - NCT07304479Recruiting
Comparing two anesthetics for robotic surgery
This trial compares two types of anesthesia (sevoflurane and desflurane) during robotic abdominal surgery. It aims to find which one may be safer and better for your lungs.
AthensAges 18–87 - NCT07352930Recruiting
Fluorescence-guided system for breast cancer surgery margins
This trial tests a new imaging system that helps surgeons see if cancer cells remain after breast-conserving surgery. It may reduce the need for a second surgery by giving real-time feedback on the removed tissue.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT07030179Recruiting
Frailty, kidney injury, and blood pressure in non-cardiac surgery
This study looks at whether a patient's level of frailty (overall weakness and health before surgery) affects their risk of acute kidney injury after non-cardiac surgery, and whether blood pressure changes during surgery play a role in that link.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT07617428Enrolling by invitation
Testing a new blood loss monitor during surgery
This study tests a new system designed to accurately measure blood loss during elective surgery. If you're having planned urological or general surgery, this trial may help doctors better monitor your blood during the procedure.
Lanzhou, GansuAges 18 years+ - NCT07595679Recruiting
Pain Relief Methods for Gallbladder Surgery
This study compares two types of numbing injections given during laparoscopic gallbladder removal surgery to see which one reduces the need for strong pain medications during the procedure. You would receive one of these two injection methods as part of your anesthesia care.
Ankara, YenimahalleAges 18–80 - NCT07746505Recruiting
Remimazolam vs midazolam for anesthesia in older adults
This study compares two sedative medicines used to start general anesthesia in patients 65 and older having non-cardiac surgery. The goal is to see which one is safer and works better for older patients.
HangzhouAges 65 years+ - NCT07719075Recruiting
Norepinephrine dose for low blood pressure during emergency belly surgery
This trial tests whether a 5 microgram or a 10 microgram dose of norepinephrine works better to treat low blood pressure that happens after starting anesthesia or during emergency abdominal surgery. It may help doctors choose the right dose to keep your blood pressure stable.
Cairo, Cairo GovernorateAges 21–65 - NCT06409013Recruiting
Dye-guided surgery for sarcoma removal
This study tests whether using a special dye during surgery helps doctors see and remove sarcoma tumors more completely. It may help improve the chances that no cancer is left behind.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT07104825Recruiting
Nerve block for pain after weight loss surgery
This trial tests if a nerve block can help control pain after gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy. The goal is to reduce the need for strong pain medicines and improve recovery.

Test immunotherapy with salvage surgery and IORT for head and neck cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests a new plan that combines immunotherapy with surgery, plus a targeted radiation treatment called IORT. It is for people whose head and neck squamous cell cancer has come back or never fully went away and can be operated on. The goal is to shrink or control the cancer and see how safe the approach is.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for intraoperative?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 272 recruiting intraoperative 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 intraoperative 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 intraoperative 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.
