Recovery, Analgesia And Delirium Profiles At Laparoscopic Surgeries With Processed EEG Monitoring
136 participantsStarted 2026-07-27
Plain-language summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of processed electroencephalogram (pEEG) monitoring on recovery and extubation times, length of stay in the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU), postoperative pain, patient comfort, sedation, development of delirium, and length of hospital and intensive care unit stay in laparoscopic surgeries performed in the Trendelenburg (T) or reverse Trendelenburg (RT) positions.
Materials and Methods: This prospective, randomized, single-center study included a total of 136 patients will be scheduled for elective laparoscopic surgery under general anesthesia. Patients will allocated into four groups according to surgical position (Group T or Group RT) and the use of processed electroencephalogram monitoring (Group TBIS and Group RTBIS). Intraoperative depth of anesthesia will be maintained either by titration guided by processed electroencephalogram indices or according to standard clinical parameters. Extubation time, recovery time, length of stay in the PACU, postoperative pain scores, patient comfort, level of sedation, incidence of delirium, and lengths of hospital and intensive care unit stay will be recorded.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
