Sevoflurane Anesthesia MRI Research Study
Healthy adults, age 18-59, are being recruited for a study of the commonly-used inhaled anesthetic sevoflurane. This involves MRI scans while performing a memory task and experiencing periodic painful electric shocks, at a level you set in advance.
Interested subjects must complete a brief visit to undergo memory testing. If your memory performance is above the entry cutoff, you may be enrolled in the study. This involves 2 additional study visits, typically during weekday working hours.
Subjects will be paid $250 for completing all study visits.
