Common painkiller may shield brain during lung operations
NCT ID NCT07399184
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether giving ibuprofen during and right after lung surgery can help keep the brain well-oxygenated and lower the risk of confusion or memory problems afterward. About 54 adults having a type of keyhole lung surgery will be split into two groups: one gets ibuprofen, the other does not. Researchers will measure brain oxygen levels during surgery and check for delirium and thinking changes after.
