Summary

This observational study will monitor brain activity (EEG) in 330 people during anesthesia or sedation to see how it relates to drug levels and patient factors. It includes children with and without autism, adults over 70, and adults having sedation for endoscopy. The goal is to improve how we track consciousness and tailor anesthesia for different groups.

What this could mean

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

What this could lead to: If successful, this could lead to better anesthesia monitoring tools and safer, more personalized anesthesia management for children, elderly, and people with autism.
What could go wrong: This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It aims to gather data, not test a new drug or device, so direct patient benefits are not guaranteed.
