Brain oxygen changes during spine surgery position shifts
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study measures how your child's brain oxygen levels change when they are repositioned during spine surgery. It may help make surgeries safer for teens and young adults.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 10 and 21 years old
- You are scheduled to have back fusion surgery (posterior spinal fusion)
- Your surgery will use brain and nerve monitoring
- Your surgeon will place a small tube in an artery (arterial line) to track blood pressure and oxygen

This trial monitors brain oxygen levels during shoulder surgeries done in a beach chair (semi-sitting) position under general anesthesia. It helps doctors understand how well the brain gets oxygen during these surgeries.
This study checks how well newborn babies’ brains are getting oxygen and how brain activity changes while they have certain major surgeries. It may help doctors better monitor brain safety during surgery in newborns with specific conditions.
This study tests a non-invasive monitoring device (NIRS) that tracks blood flow to the spinal cord during planned aortic surgery. The goal is to better understand and prevent spinal cord damage that can cause paralysis after major aortic procedures.
This study monitors how well blood flow and brain activity are working during a brain aneurysm coiling procedure. It uses two non-invasive devices (one near your forehead and one on your arm or finger) to help guide anesthesia and track your brain's health during surgery.
This trial tests a non-painful near-infrared brain scan (placed on the forehead) during planned adult heart surgery. It may help doctors better understand how the brain responds during surgery and improve care.
This study looks at how children's brains respond during laparoscopic hernia repair. It uses two noninvasive devices (a headband and sensors on the forehead) to measure blood flow and oxygen levels in the brain while the child is under anesthesia. This could help doctors better understand how to keep children safe during this type of surgery.
