Study links genes to complications after scheduled surgery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Pain clinical trials.
This study looks at how certain genetic differences may affect the risk of complications and recovery outcomes after surgery. It may help doctors understand who is more likely to have problems around the time of an operation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be 18 years old or older
- Be able to give written consent to join the study
- Have surgery already planned (scheduled)
- Have no significant cognitive problems that prevent understanding the study
- Not be unable or unwilling to provide informed consent

This study looks at whether genetic differences can help predict how much pain you may have after an elective (planned) operation. If you qualify, you may be asked to give consent and share information so researchers can compare pain experiences across people.
This study looks at how pediatric patients do after different types of planned and unplanned surgeries at participating hospitals. It may help doctors improve care and safety for children undergoing surgery.
This study looks at genes in people who have atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries). It will check tissue samples taken during surgery to learn more about how the disease works.
This study looks for genetic (DNA) clues that may help predict side effects or complications after heart surgery. If you join, your genome information may be used to understand who is at higher risk and why.
This trial looks at how certain genes may affect how children feel pain after surgery. The goal is to understand if differences in your DNA can help doctors manage pain better for each child.
This study looks at whether using a person’s genetic information helps doctors make better decisions during planned surgery. It may help tailor care, but you would only join if you can consent and don’t have certain serious conditions.
