Ultrasound eye measurement during gallbladder surgery
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study uses a simple eye ultrasound to measure eye structures during gallbladder surgery. It aims to see if these measurements can help monitor pressure inside the head during the procedure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You are scheduled for gallbladder removal surgery using a minimally invasive technique (laparoscopic cholecystectomy).
- You are in good general health (classified as ASA I or II by your anesthesiologist).
- You have no history of brain tumors, increased pressure in the head, or prior abdominal or eye injuries.

This study is for people having kidney stone surgery. It looks at how the position you are in during surgery affects the nerve sheath around your eye, which may help doctors monitor pressure in the brain.
This study looks at how different air pressure levels in the belly during laparoscopic (keyhole) gynecologic cancer surgery might affect the nerve at the back of the eye. Researchers measure the optic nerve sheath to see if pressure changes cause swelling.
This trial tests a non-invasive way to measure pressure inside the skull during brain tumor surgery. If it works, patients may avoid more invasive pressure monitors.
This study uses eye scans to see if changes in the retina can help doctors measure pressure inside the skull. It may help find a safer way to check for high pressure in the brain without needing a needle in the back.
This study uses a painless ultrasound to measure the nerve behind your eye in pregnant women with preeclampsia. The goal is to see if this measurement can help doctors better manage anesthesia during delivery.
This study measures eye pressure changes during spine surgery while you are lying face down. It helps doctors understand how this position affects the eyes, which is important for patient safety.
