This research examines how sleep issues before heart surgery may affect how well patients recover afterward. Researchers will study blood markers and chemical changes to better understand this connection and potentially improve surgical outcomes.
This trial tests a gentle light treatment to help prevent thinking problems after surgery in older patients. It involves using a special light on your head before and after your operation.
This study looks at how sleep problems before surgery affect the amount of anesthesia needed and how well you recover after non-cardiac surgery. The goal is to help doctors personalize care for better recovery.
This trial tests whether using bright light at the right time during and after heart surgery helps patients recover more comfortably. It focuses on people having a specific type of open-heart surgery and checks certain heart rhythm and safety factors.
This study compares different types of general anesthesia by checking how your pupils (the black part of the eye) respond after surgery. It may help doctors understand which anesthesia options are better for eye-related side effects after planned ear, nose, or throat operations.
This study looks at how sleep changes for adults after surgery under general anesthesia. Researchers want to understand patients' experiences with sleep during recovery.
