Summary

This study tests a device to improve how doctors monitor brain function during surgery. It uses sensors and video to measure and minimize patient movement caused by electrical stimulation. The goal is to make brain surgery safer and more precise. About 200 patients with brain lesions will take part.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

ISIS IOM System (device)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could lead to safer brain surgeries by reducing unintended movement during monitoring, potentially lowering complication risks.

What could go wrong

This is an early-stage optimization study, not a treatment trial. The device may not significantly improve outcomes, and results may not apply to all surgeries.
