By mapping those areas of the brain that are necessary for such functions, the neurosurgeon is able to avoid resection of cortical tissue that might compromise the patient's abilities to speak or move, hence preserving neurologic function. AC is often accomplished by direct cortical stimulation or inhibition, while maintaining the patient's ability to interact with the operative team. The anesthetic technique often involves a regional (scalp) block combined with intraoperative intravenous mild sedation. In some reported instances of AC, no cortical mapping is performed, and the technique is performed solely because it is thought that AC leads to a better recovery profile (less pain, better neurologic outcome, and shorter hospital stay) than craniotomy performed under general anesthesia.\n\nThe Quality of Recovery Score (QoR-40) is a validated, multi-parameter instrument that has been used in various postoperative populations to assess the overall satisfaction and well-being of patients having undergone anesthesia and surgery. Leslie et al. have reported that the QoR-40 is a valid tool in assessing neurosurgical patients, but a direct comparison between AC patients and general anesthesia craniotomy (GAC) patients using this tool has never been performed.\n\nAC may also be associated with better 30 and 90 day multi-parameter outcomes than GAC. The well-validated Acute Short Form (SF-12) health survey, an abbreviated version of the SF-36, consists of 12 items. It measures two domains, including mental and physical component summaries (mental component summary and physical composite score, respectively).\n\nHypothesis:\n\nAwake craniotomy for tumor resection is associated with a better multi-parameter quality of recovery in the immediate postoperative period, and better 30 and 90 day quality of life outcomes, than craniotomy performed under general anesthesia."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '100 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'Adult non-pregnant patients (age ≥ 18 years) undergoing Awake Craniotomy or General Anesthesia Craniotomy for elective supratentorial tumor resection.', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Adult non-pregnant patients (age ≥ 18 years) undergoing AC or GAC for elective supratentorial tumor resection.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Patients under 18 years of age, non-English speaking, pregnancy, unable to obtain written informed consent, infratentorial tumors.'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT02228993', 'briefTitle': 'Quality of Recovery Awake Versus Asleep Craniotomy', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Northwestern University'}, 'officialTitle': 'Quality of Recovery Following Awake Craniotomy Versus Craniotomy Performed Under General Anesthesia', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'STU00096969'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'label': 'Awake Craniotomy'}, {'label': 'General Anesthesia Craniotomy'}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '60611', 'city': 'Chicago', 'state': 'Illinois', 'country': 'United States', 'facility': 'Northwestern University', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 41.85003, 'lon': -87.65005}}]}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Northwestern University', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'investigatorTitle': 'Associate Professor of Anesthesiology & Neurological Surgery', 'investigatorFullName': 'John Bebawy', 'investigatorAffiliation': 'Northwestern University'}}}}
