Using fospropofol for anesthesia in adult laparoscopic surgery
Official title: Minimum Effective Dose and Maintenance Effectiveness of Fospropofol for General Anesthesia Induction in Adult Laparoscopic Abdominal Surgery: A Randomized, Single-Blind, Clinical Study
Run by Tongji Hospital · NCT06573489 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study is testing if a new anesthesia drug called fospropofol is safe and effective for adults having laparoscopic abdominal surgery, compared to the traditional drug propofol.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates for this study are adults aged 18-65 with ASA grade I-II who are scheduled for laparoscopic abdominal surgery lasting more than three hours.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with contraindications to general anesthesia, significant comorbidities, or a history of anesthesia complications may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This clinical trial investigates the efficacy and safety of fospropofol disodium as a general anesthesia agent in adults undergoing laparoscopic abdominal surgery. The study aims to determine the lowest effective dose for anesthesia induction and evaluate its efficacy and safety during the maintenance phase. Additionally, it will monitor changes in the Bispectral Index (BIS) during different phases of anesthesia to compare fospropofol with traditional propofol. The trial is designed as a randomized, single-blind, controlled study with an expected enrollment of 373 patients.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved anesthesia protocols that enhance patient safety and recovery during laparoscopic surgeries.
How similar studies have gone: While the use of fospropofol is established, this specific application in laparoscopic surgery is novel and has not been extensively tested in prior studies.
