Simulation training for paramedics caring for brain tumor patients
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer clinical trials.
This study tests whether training paramedics with realistic simulations can improve the hospital experience for patients with malignant brain tumors. If you are staying in neurosurgery before your diagnosis is confirmed, you may be able to join.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older
- You have health insurance coverage
- You have a brain tumor that might be cancerous (either starting in the brain or spreading there from elsewhere)
- You are currently in the neurosurgery department before the official biopsy results are given
- You have not had cancer before this brain tumor
- You have a family member or someone who can receive information if needed

This trial tests whether a special brain stimulation technique (nTMS) before surgery can help the brain reorganize around a tumor. It's for people with aggressive brain tumors near movement areas, who still have good strength.
This trial explores whether using a 3D mixed-reality viewer (like special goggles) to plan brain tumor surgery beforehand can help surgeons do a better job. If you are an adult with a brain tumor needing planned surgery and have had a recent MRI or CT scan, you may be able to join.
This study looks at how cancer and its treatment affect thinking and memory. It may help find ways to protect brain function during radiotherapy.
This study tests whether education and support for patients having their first brain tumor surgery—and their caregivers—helps them cope better and recover more smoothly. You and your caregiver would receive educational materials and support throughout your treatment journey.
This study tests if a home exercise program can improve mental and physical health for people with brain tumors and their live-in partners. Both of you will be guided through exercise sessions together over video.
This study tests a new way to guide brain surgery using a head-mounted mixed reality system, which helps the surgeon see the tumor and surrounding structures. It is for adults with certain brain tumors that have not been treated before.
