Brain monitoring during anesthesia for major abdominal surgery
Part of Heart & circulation, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests whether using a special brain wave monitor during anesthesia can improve recovery for people having major abdominal surgery lasting more than two hours.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for major abdominal surgery expected to last more than 2 hours
- You are between 18 and 70 years old
- You have an ASA physical status score of I, II, or III (broadly, you are in good to moderate health)
- You do not have severe uncontrolled high blood pressure, recent heart problems, advanced kidney or liver disease, or an active infection in the blood

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests whether extra brain monitoring during and after major abdominal surgery helps older patients recover better. The monitoring tracks brain function to guide anesthesia and care, which might reduce confusion or other problems after surgery.
This trial compares different anesthesia monitoring techniques during laparoscopic surgery to see how they affect recovery, pain, and confusion after the operation. It may help find a way to improve your recovery and reduce side effects from anesthesia.
This study uses a special brain-wave monitor during your surgery to see if it can predict confusion or memory problems afterward. It may help you and your doctors better understand your recovery.
This trial studies whether special brain wave monitoring during anesthesia can help improve children's behavior after surgery. It is for children ages 3 to 10 having certain types of surgery that last more than an hour.
This study looks at how anesthesia changes brain activity using EEG (a non-invasive brain wave recording). Researchers want to see if these changes relate to how conscious you are during surgery. This could help doctors provide safer anesthesia care.
This study tests a special brain-wave monitor (called processed EEG) during surgery to remove a brain tumor. The monitor helps the anesthesiologist keep you at the right level of sleep, which may improve safety and recovery.
