Binaural beats and anesthesia in young children
This study tests whether listening to binaural beats (special sounds that may help relax the brain) can reduce the amount of anesthesia medicine needed during surgery in children under 3 years old. If successful, it could make anesthesia safer and reduce side effects.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child is under 3 years old
- Your child is having a surgery that lasts more than 1 hour (like mole removal, hernia repair, or eye muscle surgery)
- Your child is healthy or has only mild health problems (classified as ASA I or II)
- Your child does NOT have hearing problems or use a hearing aid
- Your child does NOT have a neurological disorder, respiratory disease, or need heart or brain surgery

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests whether playing binaural sounds (special audio tones) through headphones during surgery can help people relax while under anesthesia with the drug remimazolam. It may reduce the amount of anesthesia needed and improve recovery.
This study tests whether noise in the operating room affects how your brain monitor (BIS) and heart rate respond during general anesthesia. It aims to help make surgeries safer and more comfortable for patients.
This study looks at whether playing special sounds (binaural beats) through earphones during surgery can lower the amount of anesthetic (remimazolam) needed. It may help people having breast surgery with reconstruction who want to use less medication.
This study tests whether playing calming music and reducing operating room noise during surgery helps children need less anesthesia and pain medication. Researchers hope this simple change might make surgery safer and recovery easier for kids.
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 whether using special brain-monitoring devices during anesthesia can help reduce confusion and agitation that sometimes happens after surgery in children ages 1–6. The goal is to improve recovery by helping doctors manage anesthesia more precisely.
