Remifentanil vs esmolol for aneurysm coiling intubation
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial compares two medications, remifentanil and esmolol, given during tube placement for brain aneurysm repair. The goal is to find which drug better protects the brain during this procedure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 18 years or older
- You are scheduled for a planned brain aneurysm coiling procedure under general anesthesia
- You are in good enough health (ASA class I-III) for surgery
- You are able to understand and sign a consent form
- You do not have heart rhythm problems or unstable blood pressure before anesthesia

This trial compares two medicines—remifentanil and rocuronium—to see which helps doctors place a breathing tube more easily during anesthesia. It may help you if you are having routine surgery and need a tube for breathing support.
This trial tests whether adding lidocaine or sufentanil to a standard anesthetic drug (etomidate) helps reduce the dose of remifentanil needed to place a breathing tube comfortably. It may help patients undergoing planned surgery with general anesthesia.
This study compares two methods to keep your blood pressure low during ear, nose, or throat surgery: one uses only remifentanil (a pain medicine), and the other adds nicardipine (a blood pressure medicine). The goal is to find which approach works best with fewer side effects.
This trial tests a newer anesthesia drug (remimazolam) combined with alfentanil against a standard drug (propofol) combined with alfentanil for people having chest surgery. The goal is to see which approach works better and is safer.
This study monitors how well blood flow and brain activity are working during a brain aneurysm coiling procedure. It uses two non-invasive devices (one near your forehead and one on your arm or finger) to help guide anesthesia and track your brain's health during surgery.
This trial compares two drugs given during nose surgery to help keep your blood pressure steady. It may help reduce bleeding and improve recovery.
