Brain surgery anesthesia showdown: which method causes less confusion?
NCT ID NCT07357480
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study compares two ways of giving anesthesia during brain surgery: a computer-controlled pump versus manual control by the anesthesiologist. The goal is to see which method leads to less postoperative delirium (confusion), pain, and nausea. Researchers will study 70 adults having elective brain surgery.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
propofol and remifentanil
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a better way to give anesthesia during brain surgery, potentially reducing confusion and pain after the operation.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 70 people, so results may not apply to everyone. It compares two techniques but does not test a new drug or cure.
