Breath-based monitoring for safer anesthesia
This study tests a new way to monitor anesthesia depth by continuously analyzing exhaled breath, which may reduce the need for invasive monitoring. It could help patients avoid too much or too little anesthesia during surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older
- Your physical status should be class I to III on the ASA scale (generally healthy to mild or moderate health problems)
- Your surgery is expected to last more than 1 hour
- You will have a catheter placed in your radial artery (wrist) for monitoring
- Your doctor plans to use BIS monitoring (a device that tracks brain activity during anesthesia)

This study tests a device that monitors your brain waves while your doctor places a breathing tube before surgery. It aims to see if this monitoring helps make the tube placement easier and more comfortable for you.
This trial uses artificial intelligence to continuously predict how deep your anesthesia is during surgery. It may help doctors keep you safely sedated throughout your operation.
This study tests how well a computer model predicts the dose of a new anesthetic called cipepofol during planned surgeries that last at least an hour. The goal is to see if the model gives the right amount of drug for safe and effective anesthesia.
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 trial studies breath sounds during planned surgeries under general anesthesia. It aims to understand how breath sounds change during procedures, which may help doctors improve monitoring and care.
This study looks at how your position during surgery affects the monitors your anesthesiologist uses to track your brain activity, pain level, and oxygen in your brain. It could help make anesthesia care more precise during your operation.
