Brain tumor surgery and risk of confusion after operation
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer, Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at whether brain tumor surgery affects the risk of confusion and disorientation (delirium) after the operation. It may help doctors better prevent and manage post-surgery delirium in patients like you.

This trial tests if a calming medicine (dexmedetomidine) given during and after brain tumor surgery can help prevent confusion or delirium afterwards.
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 trial tests if dexmedetomidine, a sedative medication, can reduce pain and prevent confusion (delirium) after planned brain surgery. It may help you recover more comfortably.
This study looks at how different anesthetics change brain connections during surgery for a type of brain tumor called glioma. It may help doctors choose the best anesthesia for your surgery.
This trial tests a new pain management plan for people having brain tumor surgery. The goal is to see if combining different pain medicines before, during, and after surgery can reduce pain and improve recovery.
This study tests a combination of pain medicines given before, during, and after surgery to see if they can better control pain and reduce the need for strong opioids. It is for adults having planned surgery to remove a tumor from the upper part of the brain.
