Lucerne, Canton of LucerneAges Any age - NCT07241208Recruiting
Comparing two ways to place breathing tube for lung surgery
This study compares two methods to insert a special breathing tube (double-lumen tube) for lung surgery. One method uses a camera on a flexible scope (fiberoptic bronchoscopy) and the other uses a video laryngoscope. Your participation could help doctors know which method works better.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT06613412Recruiting
Robot-assisted lung biopsy for suspicious lung spots
This trial tests if a remote-controlled robotic bronchoscope can safely and reliably take tissue samples from hard-to-reach spots in the lung. If you have a suspicious lung nodule that needs a biopsy, this study may help determine whether the robot-based approach works as well as standard bronchoscopy.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06962436Recruiting
Comparing Robotic vs. Ultrathin Bronchoscopy for Lung Nodules
This trial compares two types of bronchoscopy (thin-tube lung camera) methods to see which one better samples lung nodules. You may be able to join if you have a suspicious lung nodule and need a biopsy.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18 years+ - NCT06935695Recruiting
Routine or waiting after airway stent placement
This study compares two approaches after placing a stent in the main breathing passages: either routine follow-up with a camera exam (bronchoscopy) or watchful waiting unless symptoms arise. It aims to see which strategy works better for patients.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06115395Recruiting
Non-invasive ventilation for bronchoscopy
This trial uses a breathing mask (non-invasive ventilation) to help people who need a bronchoscopy. It aims to make the procedure safer and more comfortable for those with breathing problems.
Al MansurahAges 18–70 - NCT07368829Recruiting
AI-assisted robotic bronchoscopy for lung nodules
This trial tests an AI system that helps guide a robotic bronchoscope to lung nodules. It may help doctors find and localize nodules more accurately during the procedure.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT05634200Recruiting
Testing bronchoscopy after unexplained coughing blood
This trial studies whether looking inside the airways with a bronchoscopy can find the cause of coughing blood when a chest CT scan is negative or unclear. It may help doctors identify the bleeding source that earlier scans did not show.
BergamoAges 18 years+ - NCT05681962Recruiting
Improving breathing support during flexible bronchoscopy
This trial studies how to give oxygen and breathing support during a flexible bronchoscopy (a camera test through the airways). It may help make the procedure safer and more comfortable by refining the way oxygen is managed during the test.
CatanzaroAges 18 years+ - NCT05804786Recruiting
Study of bronchoscopy to diagnose lung spots
This study follows people who have lung “spots” that look like possible lung cancer and need a biopsy to figure out what they are. It uses a guided breathing-tube procedure to safely collect tissue so doctors can make a diagnosis.
DaeguAges 19 years+ - NCT07517926Recruiting
Chewing gum and cold water gargle after lung breathing tube procedure
This study tests whether chewing gum and gargling with cold water can reduce sore throat and other discomfort after a bronchoscopy—a procedure where doctors look inside your airways with a thin camera. If it works, it could be a simple, safe way to feel better after the procedure.
AnkaraAges 18 years+ - NCT07484841Recruiting
Comparing ways to insert a breathing tube while awake
This study compares different methods for placing a breathing tube while you are awake. It is for people who are having planned surgery and might have a difficult airway—for example, if doctors expect challenges with a face mask, a breathing tube, or if you have a short time before you stop breathing.
İzmit, KocaeliAges 18 years+ - NCT06676956Recruiting
Testing robotic bronchoscopy with combining lymph node checks
This study is testing whether doing two different scope tests during the same procedure helps find lung cancer more quickly. The doctors will look at a lung nodule with a robot-assisted bronchoscope and also check nearby lymph nodes if they seem normal.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07463742Recruiting
Genetic changes in tracheal narrowing with two treatments
This trial studies genetic changes in people with tracheal stenosis (narrowing of the windpipe). It compares two treatments: wedge resection (cutting out the narrow part) and radial incision (cutting to open it up). This may help doctors choose the best treatment in the future.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–80 - NCT06637280Recruiting
High-flow oxygen vs standard oxygen during lung ultrasound
This trial compares two ways of delivering oxygen during a procedure called endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS), which helps doctors look at your lungs and take samples. The goal is to see if high-flow oxygen through a mask works better than the standard low-flow nasal prongs for keeping your oxygen levels stable.
Zagreb, City of ZagrebAges 18 years+ - NCT07045103Recruiting
New imaging tool for faster lung cancer detection during bronchoscopy
This trial is testing a new imaging technology that uses artificial intelligence to help doctors quickly identify lung cancer during a standard bronchoscopy procedure. If you are scheduled for a lung biopsy to check for cancer, this study may help improve detection speed and accuracy.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 22 years+ - NCT05881863Recruiting
