Push-Button sedation: could patients control their own calm during surgery?

NCT ID NCT07661810

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

Summary

This study will test whether letting patients control their own sedation during hip replacement surgery is better than having a doctor control it. About 104 adults will be randomly assigned to either press a button for extra sedation or have a clinician adjust the medication. The goal is to see if patient-controlled sedation uses less drug and keeps patients just as comfortable.

What this could lead to

If it works, this could give patients more comfort and control during surgery while using less sedation medication.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-stage trial that has not yet started recruiting. The patient-controlled method may not work as well as expected, and there is a risk of over- or under-sedation.
