Energy use before and after esophagus surgery
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study measures how your body uses energy before and after scheduled esophagus removal surgery to understand recovery needs. It may help doctors provide better nutritional support during your hospital stay.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for esophagus removal surgery (called Lewis Santy esophagectomy)
- You will have a stay in the intensive care unit or step-down unit after surgery
- You are at least 18 years old
- You have health insurance (social protection)
- You are not on oxygen therapy that would interfere with a special breathing test

This study tests a non-invasive heart monitor (seismocardiography) to see if it can predict how well patients recover after esophageal cancer surgery. The goal is to improve surgical planning and outcomes.
This study tests whether using a special tube and monitoring technique during surgery can reduce breathing problems after the operation. It may help patients recover better after certain types of surgery.
This study tests a new way to monitor patients after surgery to remove the esophagus, using a computer algorithm to spot complications early. If you are having this surgery for esophageal cancer, this might help you recover more safely.
This study looks at how your body uses energy during surgery and whether those patterns relate to how well you do after surgery. It may help doctors better predict outcomes for people with newly diagnosed esophageal or lung cancer who are preparing for treatment.
This study uses a special 3D X-ray machine to look at the bone quality in people who had their esophagus removed due to cancer. It aims to see if bone health is affected after this surgery, which could help improve future care.
This trial tests if doing supervised exercise before esophageal cancer surgery (called prehabilitation) helps people recover better. You would follow a personalized exercise plan for at least 2 weeks before your scheduled surgery.
