Brain-Wave Monitoring During Brain Tumor Surgery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for surgery to remove a brain tumor (not just a biopsy).
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You are able and willing to give your informed consent.
- Your tumor is in a place that allows placing a small electrode on your forehead.

This trial tests whether using EEG monitoring during surgery can help protect memory, attention, and other thinking skills for people with brain tumors (gliomas). If you are scheduled for brain tumor surgery and can complete simple thinking tests, this study may be an option for you.
This trial uses an electroencephalogram (EEG), which is a non-invasive way to measure your brain's electrical activity, to see if it can help predict confusion or delirium after planned brain surgery. The goal is to find out if brain wave patterns can warn doctors early, which might lead to better care.
This study examines how well a brain-monitoring device (called a bispectral index monitor) tracks your level of consciousness during surgery when you receive anesthesia through an IV. The findings may help doctors better manage anesthesia and keep you safer during procedures.
This study tests whether special monitoring during brain surgery can help surgeons remove tumors safely while protecting important brain functions like language and movement.
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 tests a new minimally invasive device that helps doctors monitor brain activity during surgery for brain tumors or epilepsy. The device uses soft electrodes placed on the brain's surface to help surgeons work more safely and precisely.
