How anesthesia affects brain networks in people with glioma
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at how different anesthetics change brain connections during surgery for a type of brain tumor called glioma. It may help doctors choose the best anesthesia for your surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a glioma (brain tumor) on one side of the brain, confirmed by an MRI
- You are scheduled for surgery to remove the tumor
- You are 18 years or older
- You are in good physical health (classified as ASA I or II)
- You are right-handed

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests if a calming medicine (dexmedetomidine) given during and after brain tumor surgery can help prevent confusion or delirium afterwards.
This trial looks at whether a medication called dexmedetomidine can reduce “postoperative delirium,” a temporary period of confusion after awake brain surgery. If you have the type of surgery the study focuses on, this could help your recovery and mental clarity afterward.
This study tests whether a combination of two medicines (dexmedetomidine and esketamine) and a gentle brain stimulation technique (tDCS) can help prevent confusion or memory problems that sometimes happen after surgery in older adults.
This trial tests whether a nasal spray with a calming medicine (dexmedetomidine) can reduce anxiety before brain surgery. It is given before the operation to help you feel more relaxed and calm.
This study tests a combination of pain-relief methods given before, during, and after brain surgery to see if they better control pain and help you recover with fewer side effects. It's for adults having surgery to remove a brain tumor.
This trial tests how a sedative drug called remimazolam affects working memory (the ability to hold and use information) in people with a type of brain tumor called glioma. It uses brain wave recordings to understand the drug's effect, which could help improve anesthesia care for brain surgery patients.
