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.

This study looks at two different ways of giving anesthesia gas during gallbladder surgery, using lung ultrasound to check how well the lungs are working. It may help find a safer or more efficient method for patients like you.
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 is testing how different ventilator settings (the machine that breathes for you during surgery) affect your lungs after surgery. They will use ultrasound to check for lung problems in the first 2 hours after surgery to see which setting is best for recovery.
This study looks at how the position you are placed in during surgery affects your lungs afterward. Doctors will use a simple ultrasound to check for lung collapse (atelectasis) after your operation, to try to find better ways to prevent it.
This trial tests whether using ultrasound to look at the lungs during surgery can help doctors give the right amount of fluids. It may help patients having open abdominal surgery stay more stable during the operation.
