NCT ID NCT04266665

Summary

This study tested whether a sedative drug called dexmedetomidine could help protect the brain during surgery to remove a tumor. Researchers gave the drug or a placebo to 56 patients during their operation to see if it reduced brain stress and inflammation. The main goal was to see if this led to better brain function and recovery after surgery.
