New monitor may predict heart danger during nose surgery

NCT ID NCT07435870

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study tests whether a device called the Analgesia Nociception Index (ANI) can predict and prevent a sudden drop in heart rate (trigeminal cardiac reflex) during nasal septoplasty. 90 adults undergoing nose surgery will be monitored either with standard tools or with the ANI device. The goal is to see if ANI-guided care reduces the risk of this reflex and improves safety during surgery.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Analgesia Nociception Index (ANI) monitoring device
What this could lead to
If successful, this could give surgeons a tool to predict and prevent dangerous heart rate drops during nasal surgery, making the procedure safer.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study (90 people) that only tests a monitoring device, not a treatment. It may not prove that ANI monitoring actually prevents complications in routine practice.
