A Study of Human Multi-Sensory Integration (NCT03498391) | Clinical Trial Compass
SuspendedPhase 2
A Study of Human Multi-Sensory Integration
Stopped: Due to the impact of COVID-19
United States40 participantsStarted 2018-07-30
Plain-language summary
The primary aim of this study is to determine whether spatiotemporal characteristics of multisensory evoked potentials can be used as a marker of consciousness (awareness) under anesthesia.
The secondary aim is to characterize changes in the characteristics of evoked potentials under anesthesia in both single sensory modality (visual, auditory) and across sensory modalities.
