Brain tumor surgery and confusion after the operation
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer, Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at whether people who have brain tumor surgery may experience confusion or disorientation after the operation (called delirium). By participating, you may help doctors understand and improve care for other patients.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at whether certain treatments can prevent confusion or disorientation (called delirium) that some older patients experience after brain tumor surgery. It aims to improve recovery and quality of life after the operation.
This trial tests if a calming medicine (dexmedetomidine) given during and after brain tumor surgery can help prevent confusion or delirium afterwards.
This trial tests a medicine called dexmedetomidine to see if it helps control pain and prevents confusion or delirium after brain surgery. It may help patients recover more comfortably and think more clearly.
This trial looks at whether a medication called dexmedetomidine can reduce “postoperative delirium,” a temporary period of confusion after awake brain surgery. If you have the type of surgery the study focuses on, this could help your recovery and mental clarity afterward.
This study tests whether three different anesthesia medicines (ciprofol, propofol, and sevoflurane) might reduce confusion or disorientation after brain tumor surgery in older adults. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive one of these anesthetics, and their recovery will be monitored.
This study tests a combination of pain-relief methods given before, during, and after brain surgery to see if they better control pain and help you recover with fewer side effects. It's for adults having surgery to remove a brain tumor.
