Surgery fog: study tracks memory slips after hysterectomy

NCT ID NCT07589348

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study is watching 72 women having major gynecologic surgery to see how often they experience short-term confusion or memory problems afterward. Researchers will test thinking skills before surgery and again three days after, looking for drops in score. They also want to find out if things like age, type of surgery, or inflammation play a role.
