Effect of Remifentanil on Burst Suppression Ratio
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests how remifentanil (a pain medicine given during surgery) affects brain activity patterns. It may help doctors better control anesthesia for safer surgeries.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are in good health or have only mild systemic disease (classified as ASA I or II by your anesthesiologist).
- You are having a low- or intermediate-risk elective surgery (not an emergency).
- You do not have any neurological condition (like epilepsy, stroke, Parkinson’s, or multiple sclerosis).
- You do not have any psychiatric condition (like depression, anxiety, or schizophrenia).
- You are not taking psychoactive medications or opioids (like antidepressants, sedatives, or strong painkillers).
- You do not have an allergy to propofol (a common anesthesia drug).
- Your body mass index (BMI) is 35 or lower.
- You do not have pre-existing kidney, heart, or liver problems.

This trial compares two ways of giving anesthesia during planned brain surgery on the upper part of the brain. It tests if using a computer-controlled system to deliver the anesthesia drugs is better than manually adjusting them.
This trial tests a way to lower side effects related to remifentanil, a strong pain medicine used during surgery. It may help by making surgery safer for people who are otherwise healthy enough for elective (planned) operations.
This study tests how a pain-relief medication called remifentanil changes the way your body responds to pressure pain. Researchers will measure your pain sensitivity before and after receiving this medication to better understand how it works.
This trial compares two ways of giving the pain medicine remifentanil during anesthesia. It looks at how well the computer models predict the right dose for each patient.
This trial tests the pain medicine sufentanil to see how it affects blood pressure and heart rate during brain bypass surgery. It may help doctors better manage anesthesia for people having this type of surgery.
This trial tests a fixed-ratio combination of two common anesthetics (propofol and remifentanil) given through a target-controlled infusion during surgery. It aims to find the best way to keep patients aged 65 or older asleep and pain-free during noncardiac surgeries lasting at least an hour.
