EEG study of fentanyl and how it relates to drug liking
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study looks at how fentanyl affects brain waves (EEG) and whether those brain changes are linked to how much a person likes the drug. If you are having surgery with fentanyl, you may be able to join.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how patients feel when they receive fentanyl (a pain medication) before or during a procedure. It aims to see if a second drug, called amisulpride, changes how much they like the fentanyl, which may help prevent misuse.
This study looks at how much patients like the feeling of a drug given during a procedure. It may help doctors understand which medicines work best for comfort during surgery.
This study tests a new drug, CS-1103, to see if it can safely help reverse the effects of fentanyl (a strong opioid) even after a naloxone block. Healthy volunteers who have used opioids before will be given fentanyl and then the study drug, while researchers monitor safety and how the drug works.
This study compares two different pain and sedation medicines (fentanyl and morphine) given continuously through an IV to help patients who are on a breathing machine (ventilator) in the ICU. The goal is to see which medicine works better and is safer for keeping you comfortable and calm.
This study looks at how opioids affect the senses in people having planned surgery. Researchers want to compare patients who use opioids (for pain or addiction) with those who don't, to see if there are differences in sensation.
This trial compares two medicines used around the time of surgery—pregabalin given by mouth before surgery versus fentanyl given during surgery—to see which better controls pain after the operation. You might join if you’re a generally healthy surgical patient and aren’t using certain related medicines.
