What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This trial tests whether using brainwave (EEG) and pain-level (ANI) monitoring to guide anesthesia during laparoscopic gynecological surgery can improve how well women feel the day after. About 126 female patients will be randomly assigned to either this guided approach or standard anesthesia care. The main goal is to see if the guided method leads to a better quality of recovery, with less pain and fewer side effects.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
EEG-and-ANI-guided anesthesia (a procedure using brainwave and pain-level monitoring to adjust anesthetic and painkiller doses during surgery)
What this could lead to
If it works, this approach could help women recover more comfortably and quickly after laparoscopic gynecological surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a single-center trial with 126 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The benefit over standard care may be small or absent.
