Comparing ventilation methods during lung lobe surgery
Part of Infections, Injuries & trauma, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You need to have a clear diagnosis that requires removal of one lung lobe.
- You must be between 18 and 75 years old.
- Your physical status should be rated as ASA I, II, or III (a standard measure of health before surgery).
- The surgery is planned to last with one lung breathing for 1 to 3 hours.
- You cannot have had a cold or lung infection in the last month.
- You cannot have certain lung diseases like asthma, COPD, or a history of respiratory failure.

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.
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.
This trial compares two ways of managing breathing while you have surgery to remove lung cancer. It may help doctors figure out which strategy is safer and works better during the operation.
This trial compares two ways of helping you breathe during chest surgery: flow-controlled ventilation and volume-controlled ventilation. The goal is to see which method works better for oxygen and lung protection while one lung is temporarily deflated.
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 study tests two ways of using a ventilator during laparoscopic surgery to see which one helps patients breathe better afterward. If you are having elective laparoscopic surgery and need a breathing tube, you may be able to join.
