Brain surgery monitoring with ultrasound and pupil checks
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial tests non-invasive monitoring tools during brain surgery to track brain pressure and function. It may help doctors improve patient safety during operations.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for brain surgery that will happen more than 48 hours from now.
- You are able to speak and understand French.
- You have no objection to participating, and if you cannot consent, a relative does not object.
- You do not have a chronic subdural hematoma (a slow brain bleed).
- Your surgery is not just a procedure inside a blood vessel, a stereotactic biopsy, or a shunt placement.
- You do not have known pupil problems, glaucoma, cataract surgery, or other eye surgeries.

This study tests a non-invasive way to monitor pressure inside the skull during brain tumor surgery. It may help guide treatment without the need for invasive monitors.
This study is testing a new way to measure pressure inside the skull without needing a separate procedure. It may be an option for people having brain surgery, getting spinal taps, or needing their VP shunt adjusted.
This study tests whether using a non-invasive monitor to guide fluid and medication during planned brain surgery helps keep your blood pressure and heart rate stable. It may help reduce complications during and after surgery.
This study tests whether real-time monitoring of brain activity during surgery helps surgeons remove brain tumors more safely while preserving important functions like speech and movement.
This study tests a new way to estimate pressure inside the skull without extra needles or surgery. It uses a soft mask and ultrasound to measure pressure at a vein near the eye, aiming to find a safer alternative for people who already have a standard brain-pressure monitor in place.
This trial tests a way to improve how signals from the brain are monitored during surgery to protect important areas. It might help ensure the surgery is safer and more precise.
