Comparing anesthetics' effects on brain networks
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests how different anesthesia medicines affect brain connections during surgery. Participants will be monitored while receiving one of three anesthetics to see which has the least impact on brain function.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are having planned (non-emergency) surgery that doesn't involve the heart or major blood vessels.

- You are in good health with no significant medical conditions (classified as ASA I or II).
- Your body mass index (BMI) is between 18 and 31 kg/m².

This study uses MRI scans to see how two common sedatives, ketamine and propofol, affect brain activity. It may help explain how these drugs work differently in the brain.
This trial compares the anesthesia medicines remimazolam and propofol during major surgery to see how patients do afterward. It may help guide which anesthetic is safer or leads to better recovery in higher-risk patients.
This study tests two anesthetic medications, ciprofol and remimazolam, during spinal surgery with nerve monitoring. It aims to find which one allows clearer nerve signals, which may improve safety and outcomes.
This study compares how the brain wakes up from two common types of anesthesia: one given through a breathing tube (inhalational) and one given through an IV (total intravenous). It uses a special headband to measure brain waves, which may help doctors improve anesthesia care and recovery.
This study looks at how different anesthetics change brain connections during surgery for a type of brain tumor called glioma. It may help doctors choose the best anesthesia for your surgery.
This study looks at how anesthesia changes brain activity using EEG (a non-invasive brain wave recording). Researchers want to see if these changes relate to how conscious you are during surgery. This could help doctors provide safer anesthesia care.
