Doctors test which anesthesia drug creates clearer brain maps for Children's surgery
NCT ID NCT07165262
Summary
This study aims to determine which of two common anesthesia drugs (fentanyl or ketamine) works better for mapping brain activity during surgery for children with brain tumors and epilepsy. Doctors place electrodes directly on the brain during surgery to identify areas causing seizures, and certain drugs can help make this brain activity more visible. The research will compare how well each drug activates these brain signals to help surgeons more accurately remove tumor and seizure-causing tissue.
