This trial tests two different ways to keep your lungs inflated with air during bariatric (weight-loss) surgery. Researchers want to see which method helps you breathe better and recover faster after your procedure.
This trial tests whether a personalized breathing setting during surgery can lower the risk of lung complications after weight-loss surgery. If you have a high risk of lung issues, you may be eligible.
This trial tests whether electrical nerve stimulation (a non-invasive, pain-relieving technique) can help improve breathing problems that sometimes occur after weight-loss surgery. The study measures how well your diaphragm—the muscle that helps you breathe—works after the procedure.
This trial tests a new breathing exercise device designed to help your lungs recover after heart surgery. It may make your breathing easier and speed up your return to daily activities.
This study tests whether a special reminder device helps people do their breathing exercises more often after surgery. You will use a breathing exercise tool (incentive spirometer) with or without a reminder that beeps or flashes to prompt you to use it.
This study tests whether breathing exercises can help people recovering from weight loss (bariatric) surgery. It may improve your breathing and recovery after the procedure.
