Heart rate and brain waves to predict recovery after brain surgery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study monitors your heart rate and brain waves during and after brain surgery to see if they can help doctors predict how well you will recover. It aims to improve care for future patients.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are at least 18 years old.
- You are scheduled for elective (non-emergency) brain surgery.
- Doctors plan to remove your breathing tube in the recovery room after surgery.
- You are able to have high-quality heart and brain wave recordings during and after surgery.
- You can sign a consent form before surgery.

This study tests a small heart monitor placed under the scalp during brain surgery to see if it can safely track heart rhythms. It may help doctors monitor patients more closely after surgery.
This study uses a brain wave recording device (EEG) during heart surgery to see if it can predict short-term confusion or memory problems after the operation. It may help doctors find and treat thinking issues earlier.
This trial uses an electroencephalogram (EEG), which is a non-invasive way to measure your brain's electrical activity, to see if it can help predict confusion or delirium after planned brain surgery. The goal is to find out if brain wave patterns can warn doctors early, which might lead to better care.
This study tests a new way to predict delirium (sudden confusion) after heart surgery by using brain monitoring. It may help doctors detect early warning signs so they can act faster.
This study uses a special brain-wave monitor during your surgery to see if it can predict confusion or memory problems afterward. It may help you and your doctors better understand your recovery.
This study looks at how blood pressure and brain oxygen levels during heart surgery might help us predict recovery. If you are having heart surgery, your participation could help doctors understand how to improve care.
