Comparing two anesthetics for gallbladder surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study compares two types of anesthesia to see which one better preserves brain function and recovery after laparoscopic gallbladder removal. It aims to help patients wake up more clearly and maintain cognitive function after surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial compares two sedative medicines (remimazolam and propofol) given during heart ablation procedures. The study uses brain-wave monitoring to see which medicine provides better sedation and recovery. It's for people who are already scheduled for this procedure with a specific doctor.
This study compares two medications used to put you to sleep for gallbladder removal surgery. It looks at how quickly you lose consciousness with remimazolam versus the standard drug propofol.
This trial compares the anesthesia medicines remimazolam and propofol during major surgery to see how patients do afterward. It may help guide which anesthetic is safer or leads to better recovery in higher-risk patients.
This trial tests two different anesthesia medicines during liver surgery to see which one keeps blood pressure more stable. If you are having a planned liver operation, this study could help improve how anesthesia is given.
This study compares two types of anesthesia for nasal surgery to see which one causes less confusion or agitation when waking up. It may help you have a smoother recovery after your procedure.
This study compares two different anesthesia combinations for chest surgeries to see which one works better for keeping you comfortable and stable during the operation. Participants will receive one of the two combinations, helping doctors learn which approach is safer and more effective.
