Predicting deep anesthesia from propofol levels
This study wants to see if we can predict the right amount of propofol (a sleep medicine) needed for deep anesthesia during surgery. It may help doctors give just the right dose for each person.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for any type of surgery under general anesthesia.
- You are 18 years or older.
- You can speak English or French.
- You do not have an allergy or medical condition that prevents using the standard anesthesia plan for this study.
- Your body mass index (BMI) is under 35.
- Your doctor does not expect any problems with your breathing tube or mask during anesthesia.

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.
This trial tests a way to give the anesthetic drug propofol during sleep induction for high-risk patients having major, planned surgery. It uses a computer-controlled pump to deliver the drug, aiming to keep your blood pressure more stable.
This trial tests whether monitoring how deeply you sleep during anesthesia helps prevent confusion and memory problems after surgery. It is for older adults who can give consent and are having a major operation.
This study tests how well a computer model predicts the dose of a new anesthetic called cipepofol during planned surgeries that last at least an hour. The goal is to see if the model gives the right amount of drug for safe and effective anesthesia.
This study compares how three different anesthesia medications affect your brain's neural networks (the connections that help your brain function) during routine surgery. Researchers want to understand which anesthetic might be safest for protecting brain function.
This study tests different ways of giving propofol (a medicine to make you sleep during surgery) to see which method works best. If you are having planned surgery with a breathing tube, this trial might help improve how anesthesia is given.
