Breathing support during and after surgery

This study tests a prevention strategy for breathing problems after surgery. You may qualify if you're having a long surgery (over 2 hours) that is abdominal, involves lying on your stomach, or if you are obese, and you need a stomach tube as part of the procedure.

This study compares different ways of helping patients breathe after surgery while they're being moved to the intensive care unit. Researchers want to find the safest and most effective method for patients who need a breathing tube.

This trial tests two types of non-invasive breathing help (NIV and HVNI) for patients who develop serious breathing problems within two days after major surgery. It aims to see which method works better to avoid needing a breathing tube.

This study tests whether giving gentle breathing support before and during major abdominal surgery can help prevent lung complications after the operation. It is for adults at medium to high risk for breathing problems after surgery.

This study watches patients after major surgery to see which factors may increase the chance of needing a breathing tube again. It helps doctors better predict and prevent breathing problems in the intensive care unit.

This study tests whether adjusting breathing machine settings during lung surgery improves oxygen levels and recovery. If you're having lung surgery, this trial may help doctors keep you safer during the procedure.
