This study compares two anesthesia methods—inhaled gas (desflurane) versus IV medication (TIVA)—during weight-loss surgery to see how each affects your body's stress response and recovery. The goal is to understand which approach may be safer and more comfortable for patients having bariatric surgery.
This study tests whether adding dexmedetomidine or ketamine during bariatric surgery helps control pain better. It may help reduce the need for stronger pain medicines after surgery.
This study compares two common anesthesia medicines—sevoflurane (inhaled gas) and propofol (IV liquid)—to see which works better for people with obesity having lower-back spine surgery. The goal is to understand which anesthetic is safer and more effective for this group.
This study compares two common anesthetics, sevoflurane and desflurane, to see how they affect a measure of stress called the Analgesia Nociception Index (ANI) during surgery. It aims to find which one might be better for patients undergoing general anesthesia.
This study compares two common types of anesthesia (sevoflurane and desflurane) during gallbladder removal surgery. It looks at how these drugs affect your body's metabolism, which may help doctors choose the safest option for you.
This trial compares two different anesthesia gases (sevoflurane vs. desflurane) during laparoscopic gallbladder surgery. It measures how each gas affects the pressure on your lungs, to see which might be safer.
