Brain-Monitoring Anesthesia for Pediatric Throat Surgery
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests a special brain-monitoring device (called Conox) during anesthesia for children having their tonsils and adenoids removed. The goal is to help doctors give the right amount of anesthetic medicine by watching your child's brain activity in real time.

This study compares two anesthetic medicines, remimazolam and propofol, to see which one may have a better effect on children's brain development after surgery. Your child would receive one of these medicines during their operation, and the research team would follow up to monitor their development.
This trial tests whether giving two medicines (dexmedetomidine and esketamine) through the nose can help children ages 3-7 have less pain after their tonsil or adenoid surgery. The goal is to find a better way to manage pain without using strong drugs.
This trial tests whether a video call before surgery works as well as an in-person hospital visit for checking breathing risks in children getting their tonsils or adenoids removed. It may help families avoid extra trips to the hospital.
This study is testing a new type of brain-activity monitoring during thyroid surgery. It uses special stickers on your head to help guide the anesthesia, which may lead to a smoother recovery.
This study tests whether using special brain-monitoring devices during anesthesia can help reduce confusion and agitation that sometimes happens after surgery in children ages 1–6. The goal is to improve recovery by helping doctors manage anesthesia more precisely.
This trial studies whether special brain wave monitoring during anesthesia can help improve children's behavior after surgery. It is for children ages 3 to 10 having certain types of surgery that last more than an hour.
