Deep sedation with early breathing tube for advanced bronchoscopy
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests whether putting a breathing tube in before sedation (instead of waiting until later) makes advanced bronchoscopy safer and more comfortable. If you need a bronchoscopy for diagnosis or treatment, this study may be an option for you.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests a breathing tube put through the nose to deliver oxygen during a lung exam (bronchoscopy) while you are deeply sedated. It aims to find a safer and more comfortable way to keep your oxygen levels up during the procedure.
This trial compares two drug combinations used to keep you comfortable and relaxed during a bronchoscopy. One uses propofol with pethidine, the other midazolam with pethidine. The goal is to find which approach works better.
This trial tests a combination of two sedative and pain-relieving drugs for people having lung surgery while breathing on their own, without a breathing tube. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and effective.
This trial tests a new type of breathing tube used during routine stomach and colon exams with sedation. It aims to prevent drops in oxygen levels in patients aged 65-80.
This study compares two ways of keeping you comfortable and safe during an ERCP procedure: deeper sedation with a breathing tube versus deep sedation without a breathing tube. It aims to find which method causes fewer side effects in older adults.
This study tests a special airway device designed to keep your oxygen levels stable during sedated gastrointestinal endoscopy (a procedure to look inside your stomach or intestines while you're lightly sedated). The device may help prevent breathing problems that can happen during this type of procedure.
