Night vs daytime anesthesia outcomes for surgery patients
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study compares what happens when you are intubated (have a breathing tube placed) during surgery at night versus during the day. It looks at whether one time is riskier or takes longer, which could help improve patient safety.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 or older.
- You must be having surgery with general anesthesia (you'll be put to sleep).
- Your health status must be good to moderate (ASA class I, II, or III).
- You must not already have a breathing tube in when you get to the operating room.
- You must be able to give your consent (verbal or written) to participate.

This trial compares two ways of placing a breathing tube in patients who have a difficult airway and need surgery. One method goes through the mouth, the other through the nose, both while you are awake. The goal is to see which method you prefer.
This study compares two types of breathing tubes used during general anesthesia to see which works better for people having trauma surgery. It aims to find which tube provides safer and easier airway management during the procedure.
This study tests two different methods of applying pressure to the neck during general anesthesia to see which one keeps the breathing tube placement safer. It may help reduce risks during intubation.
This study tests two tools used to help you breathe during general anesthesia for planned surgery. The goal is to find out which one is easier and safer for patients like you.
This study compares how well patients recover from the breathing tube (extubation) after surgery, depending on whether it happens during the day or at night. The goal is to see if there are more breathing complications at night so hospitals can improve care.
This trial compares two ways of managing your breathing tube when you wake up from general anesthesia: suctioning the tube or not. It aims to see which method is more comfortable and safer for you after surgery.
