Smart monitor may make anesthesia safer during keyhole surgery
NCT ID NCT01893723
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a special monitor that tracks the body's pain balance during general anesthesia for laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery. The goal was to see if using this monitor to adjust painkiller doses could reduce side effects like low blood pressure, slow heart rate, or sudden changes in heart rate. 37 adults having gallbladder or gynecological laparoscopic surgery took part. The approach aimed to make anesthesia safer and more stable.
