Low-dose esketamine for preventing confusion after surgery in older adults
This study tests whether a low dose of the medicine esketamine can help prevent confusion after surgery in older adults at higher risk. You may qualify if you are 65 or older, planning a major non-cardiac surgery, and have certain health conditions like high blood pressure or diabetes.

Blood pressure management during non-cardiac surgery
This trial tests whether noradrenaline is better than standard care for preventing dangerously low blood pressure during surgery. If you are having non-cardiac surgery that lasts at least an hour and are expected to stay overnight, this study may be for you.
KatowiceAges 45 years+ - NCT06952387Recruiting
Personalized blood pressure for high-risk surgery patients
This study tests whether personalized blood pressure management during and after major surgery can reduce complications and death in older adults with heart or blood vessel risks. It aims to find the safest blood pressure targets for each patient.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 65–90 - NCT06969287RecruitingPhase 3
Testing fluvoxamine to prevent confusion after surgery
This trial tests if a medication called fluvoxamine can help prevent delirium (sudden confusion and disorientation) after non-cardiac surgery. If you are having surgery that requires at least a 2-day hospital stay, this study may be for you.
St Louis, MissouriAges 60 years+ - NCT07028593RecruitingPhase 4
Ciprofol for heart protection during lung surgery

WuhanAges 40–80 - NCT07030166Recruiting
Predicting kidney injury risk after non-cardiac surgery
This trial uses machine learning to predict the risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) after non-cardiac surgery. If you are 18 or older and having this type of surgery, it may help understand your risk and guide care.
NanjingAges 18 years+ - NCT07168421RecruitingPhase 4
Landiolol to prevent fast heart rate during major surgery
This trial tests a short-acting medicine called landiolol to see if it can prevent dangerously fast heart rates during and after major surgery. It is for people who have heart risks and are having a planned non-cardiac surgery.
BernAges 45 years+ - NCT07351149Recruiting
Study on kidney injury after major surgery in children
This trial looks at how often children develop kidney problems after major surgery that isn't on the heart or kidneys. The goal is to learn more about these injuries and how to prevent them.
Perth, Western AustraliaAges birth–16 years - NCT07385092Recruiting
Continuous monitoring after non-cardiac surgery
This trial compares continuous vital sign monitoring with standard spot checks for patients recovering from non-cardiac surgery. It aims to see if constant monitoring can improve safety and outcomes.
Hamburg, Free and Hanseatic City of HamburgAges 45 years+ - NCT06575530RecruitingPhase 4
Remimazolam for sedation after non-cardiac surgery

Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–64 - NCT06895590Recruiting
Testing a new water-based blood pressure cuff
This trial tests a new, very accurate blood pressure cuff that uses water to get a better reading. It is for adults who already need a standard blood pressure cuff and an arterial line as part of their hospital care.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07019857Recruiting
Thymus removal and immunity in infant heart surgery
This study looks at how removing the thymus gland during infant heart surgery affects the immune system. It compares babies who have their thymus removed with those who have heart surgery without removing it, and with babies having other types of surgery.
NantesAges Up to 6 months - NCT06706323Recruiting
