Leg circulation monitoring during pelvic surgery
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial tests a new way to check blood flow and oxygen levels in your legs during pelvic surgery when you're in the lithotomy (legs-up) position. It aims to catch any circulation problems early, which could help prevent leg injuries.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older
- You are having a small-incision pelvic surgery (like hysterectomy or endometriosis surgery)
- Your surgery will be done with your legs in stirrups (lithotomy position)
- Your surgery is expected to last more than 2 hours
- You are not pregnant
- You do not have a known allergy to medical tape or sticky sensors

This trial tests a device that continuously measures pressure in an arm or leg to help detect compartment syndrome in people on a heart-lung machine (VA-ECMO). It may help clinicians act sooner if pressure becomes dangerous, potentially reducing complications.
This study follows adults with very poor blood flow to the foot or leg (with wounds or severe pain) who are having a revascularization procedure to improve circulation. It may help doctors understand outcomes after treatment and improve care for people with critical limb ischemia.
This study tests special ways of analyzing blood-pressure recordings during major surgery to better understand why some people develop low blood pressure (hypotension). If you have high blood pressure and need invasive blood-pressure monitoring, your surgery team will use readings to study patterns that may help predict or prevent low blood pressure.
This study looks at whether special monitoring can detect dangerous pressure inside the leg after a fracture before it causes permanent damage, helping doctors decide if surgery is needed.
This study tests a new way to give anesthesia during leg surgery to improve blood flow. It aims to see if spinal anesthesia works better than general anesthesia for recovery and comfort.
This trial compares two ways of managing blood flow to your leg when you have a heart support device placed in the groin. One way uses a small extra tube (catheter) to keep blood flowing to your leg, and the other only adds it if needed. It aims to reduce leg complications.
