Low-flow vs minimal-flow anesthesia for prostate surgery
Part of Cancer, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study compares two anesthesia gas levels during robot-assisted prostate removal surgery. It tests if a lower gas flow is safer than the lowest possible flow for patients undergoing this robotic procedure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are male and 18 years or older.
- You are in good general health (ASA grade I or II).
- You are scheduled for a robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.
- You can provide written consent and do not have serious mental or hearing issues.

This study compares two types of anesthesia gas flow (low-flow vs normal-flow) to see how it affects certain markers in your blood. Researchers want to understand which method might be better for your body during surgery.
This trial measures how much anesthesia gas (sevoflurane) is used during surgery when using a special low fresh-gas-flow technique. The goal is to understand anesthesia efficiency and potentially reduce waste.
This trial compares two approaches to giving IV fluids during robotic prostate removal surgery. Researchers will use a heart-monitoring device to guide one approach and want to see which method works better for patient recovery.
This study compares two types of anesthesia—spinal (numbing the lower body) versus general (putting you to sleep)—for men having prostate surgery to treat benign enlargement. The goal is to see which approach works better and is safer for this procedure.
This trial compares two methods of giving the anesthesia drug desflurane during robotic abdominal surgery to see which works better with fewer side effects. It aims to find the safest way to keep you asleep during the operation.
This trial tests whether using lower gas pressure during robotic prostate surgery can reduce pain after the operation. It aims to help men recover more comfortably.
