Temperature management during HIPEC surgery to prevent delirium
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer, Mental health clinical trials.
This trial tests whether actively managing your body temperature during a special cancer surgery (CRS-HIPEC) can help prevent confusion or delirium afterward. It is for people with a specific type of abdominal cancer called pseudomyxoma peritonei.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You are scheduled for a specific type of surgery called cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC for a condition called pseudomyxoma peritonei (a slow-growing cancer in the abdomen).
- You do not have dementia, a major memory disorder, or a severe mental health condition like schizophrenia.
- You have not had a recent stroke, active seizures, or a traumatic brain injury.
- You do not have a history of alcohol or drug abuse that could cause withdrawal.

This trial compares two different schedules of heated chemotherapy (HIPEC) after surgery for pseudomyxoma peritonei (a rare appendix cancer that spreads in the abdomen). It may help determine whether one or three cycles of HIPEC is better for controlling the disease.
This trial compares a lower dose of heated chemotherapy (HIPEC) given during surgery to a standard dose for patients with pseudomyxoma peritonei (a condition where jelly-like mucus builds up in the abdomen). The goal is to see if the lower dose works just as well with fewer side effects.
This trial tests if carefully controlling body temperature after surgery can prevent confusion or slow thinking in older adults recovering from major cancer operations.
This trial tests whether carefully managing a patient's body temperature during cancer surgery can reduce the risk of postoperative delirium and improve long-term survival. It is for older adults undergoing major cancer surgery.
This trial tests giving heated chemotherapy directly into the belly during surgery for stomach cancer. It might help people with cancer that has spread to the lining of the belly but not to other organs.
This trial studies how the body’s heat changes during HIPEC surgery for abdominal cancer. It may help improve how doctors plan and deliver HIPEC in the future.
