Machine-learning plan to prevent lung complications after surgery
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests a computer-based (machine-learning) approach to help prevent lung problems after elective surgery done under general anesthesia. It may help by identifying higher-risk patients and guiding care to reduce postoperative pulmonary complications.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are an adult (18 or older)
- Your surgery is elective (planned, not an emergency)
- You will have general anesthesia (you are fully asleep for the procedure)
- Your surgery is not done as an outpatient (you are not sent home the same day)
- After surgery, you are not admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU)

This study looks at how different breathing machine settings during laparoscopic surgery affect the lungs. It will help doctors make ventilation safer for patients, especially those with lung issues.
This study aims to create a clear, agreed-upon definition for lung problems after surgery. It's not a treatment trial but a way to help doctors and patients better identify and grade these complications.
This study tests a new way to manage breathing during lung surgery that might reduce lung complications after the operation. It could help patients recover better and avoid problems like infection or fluid buildup in the lungs.
This study looks at ways to predict breathing-related complications after lung surgery. By participating, you may help doctors better identify who might need extra care after surgery, which could lead to better recovery and safety for future patients.
This study is looking at how well certain risk scores predict lung problems after chest surgery. It involves patients who will have surgery using one-lung breathing, and the goal is to learn which scores are most useful.
This study uses lung ultrasound before surgery to see if it can help predict breathing complications after major non-chest surgery. If you are having a long surgery under general anesthesia, this could help your care team better monitor and protect your lungs.
