Propofol dose and memory during anesthesia
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study looks at how the amount of propofol (a sleep medicine) used during anesthesia affects your ability to form memories without being aware of it. It may help doctors understand how to better manage memory during surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are having general anesthesia with a specific type of drug delivery called TIVA-TCI (total intravenous anesthesia with target-controlled infusion).
- You are healthy enough to be classified as ASA I, II, or III (a standard measure of physical health before surgery).
- You will not receive a benzodiazepine (a sedative medication) before your anesthesia.
- You do not have a current neurological (brain or nerve) or psychiatric (mental health) condition.

This study tests whether adding a sedative called dexmedetomidine changes brain activity during general anesthesia. It aims to improve how anesthesia is given.
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.
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 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.
This study looks at how children recover from anesthesia with a medicine called propofol. It compares recovery in younger kids (ages 3-5) and older kids (ages 6-12) to see if age affects how quickly they wake up and feel normal again.
This study tests a new way to give propofol, the medicine that puts you to sleep for surgery, to reduce the burning or stinging pain it can cause when first injected. You may be able to join if you are having planned (non-emergency) surgery and are not given certain other medicines beforehand.
