Testing brain-connection changes during propofol sedation
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at how the brain network connects during propofol sedation in people with long-lasting disorders of consciousness. It may help doctors understand brain function in these conditions and improve how care is guided during procedures.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how anesthesia affects brain networks in people with prolonged disorders of consciousness. It uses a spinal stimulator and sleep recordings (PSG) to understand brain activity better and may help improve treatment.
This trial tests whether a drug called esketamine can help improve brain activity in people with long-term disorders of consciousness. It may help doctors understand how the brain recovers.
This study tests how different anesthesia medicines affect how brain areas communicate with each other, measured during an MRI scan. It may help researchers understand how anesthesia can change brain networks in both healthy people and people with brain tumors.
This trial is testing a brain function evaluation system to help understand and possibly improve care for people with disorders of consciousness caused by brain injury, stroke, or lack of oxygen. It is for both acute (recent) and prolonged (lasting) cases.
This study tests how propofol, a common anesthesia medicine, affects brain activity in people with Parkinson’s disease during planned surgery. It also compares them with people without Parkinson’s during similar non-brain, non-heart surgery.
This study looks at how the anesthetic propofol affects the brain. It uses MRI and EEG to monitor brain activity during anesthesia, helping researchers understand how consciousness is lost.
