Below are recruiting perioperative neurocognitive disorders clinical trials, each written for real people, not researchers. We’re tracking 10 recruiting studies, each written for real people, not researchers, below.
Recruiting studies
- NCT07760545Recruiting
Memory screening by video before surgery
This study tests whether doing a quick memory and thinking check over video call is as reliable as doing it in person. You would take part before your scheduled surgery to help improve how cognitive health is assessed.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 65 years+ - NCT06692309Recruiting
Can brain wave patterns predict thinking problems after heart surgery?
This study uses a brain wave recording device (EEG) during heart surgery to see if it can predict short-term confusion or memory problems after the operation. It may help doctors find and treat thinking issues earlier.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 60 years+ - NCT06488807Recruiting
Smell therapy to prevent confusion after surgery
This study tests whether a simple smell-based activity before and after surgery can help prevent confusion and memory problems in older adults. It is for people 65 and older who are having a long surgery under general anesthesia.
ShanghaiAges 65 years+ - NCT07048002Recruiting
Silent brain infarct and cognitive decline after heart surgery
This trial tests a bundle of interventions to prevent silent brain infarctions (small 'silent' strokes) and thinking problems after heart or blood vessel surgery with a heart-lung machine. If you are 60 or older and having such surgery, this study may help protect your brain health.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 60 years+ - NCT06186089Recruiting
How stomach surgery affects gut bacteria and your thinking
This study looks at how having stomach cancer surgery changes your gut bacteria and thinking abilities. Researchers want to understand if these changes affect memory or brain function after the operation.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 40–80 - NCT06452147Recruiting
Anesthesia and brain health after hip surgery in older adults
This trial is testing different types of anesthesia to see how they affect brain function (memory, thinking) after hip fracture surgery in older adults. It aims to find the safest approach for elderly patients.
Wenzhou, ZhejiangAges 65 years+ - NCT07589348Recruiting
Brain Function After Gynecologic Surgery
This study measures whether women experience changes in thinking and memory after having gynecologic surgery (removal of uterus and/or ovaries). Researchers want to understand how anesthesia and surgery affect the brain and identify who might be at risk.
İzmit, KocaeliAges 18 years+ - NCT06036095RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing two types of anesthesia in older adults having surgery
This study compares two types of general anesthesia for older adults (70+) having planned non-heart, non-brain surgery that lasts at least 2 hours. The goal is to see which type might be better for preserving thinking and memory after surgery.
Portland, OregonAges 70–110 - NCT07736092Recruiting
Light Therapy Before and After Surgery for Older Adults
This trial tests a gentle light treatment to help prevent thinking problems after surgery in older patients. It involves using a special light on your head before and after your operation.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 65 years+ - NCT07200180RecruitingPhase 3
Argon gas to protect brain function after carotid surgery
This trial tests if breathing argon gas during and after surgery can help prevent thinking and memory problems in patients having carotid artery surgery. If effective, it could speed up recovery.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for perioperative neurocognitive disorders?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 10 recruiting perioperative neurocognitive disorders 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 perioperative neurocognitive disorders 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 perioperative neurocognitive disorders 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.
