Lung function during one-lung ventilation in lung surgery
Part of Injuries & trauma, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests two methods of managing breathing during lung surgery to find which one keeps lungs working better. It may help patients who need a part of their lung removed by video or robot-assisted surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests two different ways of using a breathing machine during surgery to remove a lung lobe. It aims to find which method works better for patients like you.
This study looks at whether re-inflating the lung after one-lung ventilation during keyhole lung surgery helps patients recover better. It may be an option if you are having a lobe or segment removed for lung cancer and your overall health is fairly good.
This study tracks people having video or robot-assisted lung surgery to learn how to better predict and prevent serious breathing problems after the operation. By understanding your health before surgery, doctors hope to reduce complications and improve recovery.
This study tests a special ventilation method during lung surgery to see if it can predict air leaks after the procedure. If successful, it could help patients recover more smoothly after a lobectomy or segmentectomy.
This trial tests if a customized breathing method during surgery reduces breathing problems after the operation. Patients having minimally invasive lung surgery with one-lung ventilation for more than an hour might benefit from this personalized approach.
This trial tests a new way of using a breathing machine during surgery that removes part of a lung, aiming to reduce lung damage. It may lead to a smoother recovery after surgery.
