Oxygen levels in colon blood vessels during colonoscopy
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study measures oxygen levels in the colon during a routine colonoscopy to understand how blood flow differs between people with vascular lesions (abnormal blood vessels) and those with a healthy colon. It may help doctors better diagnose and treat these conditions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for a standard colonoscopy
- You either have a history of vascular lesions (abnormal blood vessels) in the colon OR you have a healthy colon (no known colon problems)
- You are between 18 and 89 years old
- You have not had colon surgery in the past
- You do not have any sores (ulcers) in the upper part of your colon near the valve that connects to the small intestine

This study tests a new way to measure oxygen levels inside the colon during surgery, right after the surgeon reconnects the bowel. It may help doctors see if the new connection is healing well.
This study looks at how supplemental oxygen affects oxygen levels in your blood during a colonoscopy with sedation. Researchers want to understand if giving extra oxygen helps prevent drops in blood oxygen that can happen during the procedure.
This study uses a special light-based device to measure oxygen levels in your tissues during vascular surgery. It aims to see if this device can help doctors monitor blood flow more effectively during the operation, which could improve outcomes.
This study looks at how different oxygen levels during heart bypass surgery might affect recovery. It aims to see if keeping oxygen at a certain level can improve outcomes for people having surgery where a vein from the leg is used to bypass a blocked heart artery.
This study measures oxygen levels in the heart muscle during open-heart surgery using a light-based technique. You may qualify if you are an adult scheduled for this surgery and can provide consent.
This study looks at whether low oxygen levels in the blood after esophageal cancer surgery increases the risk of problems with how the surgery heals. By understanding this connection, doctors may be able to better prevent or treat healing complications.
