NCT ID NCT07675993
First seen Jun 30, 2026 · Last updated Jul 01, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study investigates whether people with sleep disorders before noncardiac surgery take longer to wake up from anesthesia and have a lower quality recovery. Researchers will monitor brain activity during and after surgery in 80 adults, comparing those with poor sleep to those with good sleep. The goal is to understand how sleep health influences anesthesia depth and emergence, which could help personalize anesthesia care.
