Study Summary

This trial will test a new machine that measures how much of the drug propofol is in a person's breath during surgery. The study will see if the machine is as accurate as other ways of measuring propofol levels.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for healthy adults aged 18-65 with a BMI of 18.5 to 30, who are undergoing surgery requiring anesthesia and have an ASA physical status of I, II, or III. It's not for those allergic to propofol components, with lung disease history or tobacco use in the last five years.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests an experimental device that measures propofol levels in exhaled breath during surgery and compares its accuracy to traditional blood measurement methods.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves monitoring rather than administering drugs, there are no direct side effects from the interventions being studied.
