Brain blood flow during robotic prostate surgery
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study looks at how blood flow to the brain changes when you are tilted during robotic prostate surgery. It may help doctors understand how to keep patients safe during the procedure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are a man between 18 and 80 years old.
- You are scheduled for robotic prostate surgery under general anesthesia.
- You are in good health or have mild health issues (ASA I-III).
- You do not have a brain tumor, stroke history, or carotid artery blockage.
- You do not have neurological conditions like epilepsy.

This study looks at how the steep head-down position (Trendelenburg) and gas inflation during robot-assisted prostate surgery affect the sheath around the optic nerve. It aims to understand eye pressure changes to improve safety.
This study looks at how being tilted head-down during robotic prostate surgery may affect your memory and thinking. Doctors want to see if this position is safe for older adults' brain function.
This trial tests a new robotic device that uses sound waves to check blood flow in the brain. It is for people who are in the Neuro ICU after spinal surgery and need careful blood pressure management.
This trial compares two ways to measure blood pressure during robot-assisted prostate surgery: a cuff on the arm (oscillometric) vs. a tiny tube in an artery (intraarterial). It aims to see if the cuff method is just as reliable, which could make monitoring simpler and less invasive.
This study looks at how blood pressure medicines affect blood flow to the brain during general anesthesia for planned surgery. It may help doctors understand how to better manage care during operations.
