Inhaled penehyclidine to prevent breathing problems in children having eye surgery
This study tests whether giving a medication called penehyclidine (given as a mist inhaled before surgery) can help prevent breathing problems in children aged 3–7 who are having eye surgery and are at risk for such problems. The medicine is compared to a placebo (a mist with no active drug).
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 3–7 - NCT05971810Recruiting
Oral cleaning and nutrition support around surgery for older adults
This trial studies whether cleaning the mouth before and after major surgery, plus special nutrition support, can lower the risk of breathing complications in older adults. It may help patients who are at higher risk for lung problems around the time of general anesthesia.
Shijiazhuang, HebeiAges 65 years+ - NCT06257407Recruiting

This trial studies how doctors manage bleeding before, during, and after liver transplant surgery. The goal is to improve safety and outcomes for people receiving a new liver.
BesançonAges 18 years+ - NCT06864819Recruiting
Alcohol blood test and surgery recovery study
This study looks at a blood test called phosphatidylethanol (PEth) to see if it can help predict how well you recover after surgery. It is for people who drink alcohol regularly and are having elective surgery with a longer hospital stay or ICU stay at University Hospitals Cleveland Medical Center.
Cleveland, OhioAges 21–79 - NCT07258875Recruiting
Using ultrasound to guide fluids during lung surgery
This study tests if using a special ultrasound exam (VExUS) to guide fluid management during lung surgery can help reduce complications like lung problems or kidney injury. It may help doctors give you just the right amount of fluids.
Heraklion, CreteAges 18 years+ - NCT05380531Recruiting
Personalized pain plan for planned C-section using opioid options
This trial tests a personalized approach to pain control during and after a scheduled C-section. It may help by matching pain medicine choices to each person’s needs, including the use of in-hospital opioids for relief.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18 years+ - NCT06603350Recruiting
How surgery factors affect recovery after lung transplant
This study looks at how things before, during, and right after lung transplant surgery affect recovery. Researchers want to learn what helps patients heal better so they can improve care.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT07537491Recruiting
AI tool to predict surgery outcomes in colorectal cancer
This study uses artificial intelligence to analyze tissue samples from your colorectal cancer surgery to help predict how you'll recover and what your long-term outlook might be. Researchers will examine your tumor tissue under a microscope to build a computer model that could help doctors personalize your care plan.
Brandenburg an der HavelAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT05679661Recruiting
Immunity-focused nutrition before surgery to reduce lung infections
This study gives an immunity-supporting nutrition plan and an oral cleaning product before and around surgery to help older adults avoid breathing-related complications. It is mainly for people at higher risk of post-surgery lung problems, and it checks whether the approach is safe and helpful.
BeijingAges 65 years+ - NCT07263347Recruiting
