NCT04593550

Brief Summary

This study compares changes in brain waves in women with gynecologic cancers who have or have not received chemotherapy and who are scheduled to receive surgery as part of their standard care. Electroencephalography is a test that measures brain waves and may help learn if sensitivity to anesthesia is higher in women who have received chemotherapy than women who have not. This study may help researchers learn if receiving chemotherapy before surgery can affect the way the brain responds to anesthesia during and after surgery.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Difference in the amplitude of alpha oscillations 15 minutes after incision

    Data will be analyzed using descriptive statistics and visualizations of the data to establish patterns of symmetry, skewness, and outliers. Will explore differences in the analysis of the alpha oscillations

    15 minutes after incision

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Patient State Index (PSI)

    Up to 2 days post surgery

  • Electroencephalography (EEG) power

    During surgery

  • Burst suppression analysis

    During surgery

  • Burst suppression ratio

    During surgery

  • Coherence analysis

    During surgery

Study Arms (1)

Observational (BrainCheck, 3D-CAM, EEG)

Patients undergo cognitive function assessment BrainCheck over 10 minutes before surgery, day 1 after surgery, and day 2 after surgery (if patients are still admitted to the hospital) and 3D-confusion assessment over 10 minutes BID on day 1 after surgery and day 2 after surgery (if patients are still admitted to the hospital). Patients also undergo EEG during surgery and collection of blood samples 30-60 minutes after surgery.
