Ultrasound for lung issues after low-flow anesthesia
Part of Digestive system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests if using ultrasound to check the lungs during low-flow anesthesia can help prevent breathing problems after gallbladder surgery. It may help doctors spot lung issues earlier and adjust care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for gallbladder removal surgery (laparoscopic cholecystectomy).
- Your body mass index (BMI) is between 18 and 35.
- You are in good health or have mild to moderate health conditions (ASA class 1, 2, or 3).
- You have no lung disease, and have not had chest surgery before.
- You are not pregnant.

This trial tests whether using a lower fresh gas flow during anesthesia affects your lungs during gallbladder removal. It helps doctors understand how to keep your lungs safe during surgery.
This trial tests if using ultrasound-guided lung opening maneuvers during surgery can reduce lung complications after a total laparoscopic hysterectomy in patients with sleep apnea. It may help you if you have obesity and sleep apnea.
This trial uses ultrasound (a non-painful scanning method) to measure how well the diaphragm works around the time of surgery. It aims to learn whether diaphragm changes during surgery relate to breathing problems, especially in people undergoing abdominal, pelvic, or vascular operations.
This study tests different ventilator (breathing machine) settings during and after surgery to help your lungs work better and stay healthy. Researchers will use ultrasound pictures of your lungs to find the best settings for you.
This study uses lung ultrasound to see how different positions during surgery affect lung collapse after general anesthesia. It may help find ways to reduce breathing problems after an operation.
This study uses ultrasound images of the lungs before surgery to predict which patients might develop breathing problems afterward. It helps doctors understand how a simple scan can warn about complications, so they can prepare better care after your operation.
