Lung ultrasound to guide fluid during surgery
This study uses lung ultrasound to help doctors give the right amount of fluids during abdominal surgery, which may improve recovery and reduce complications.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for abdominal surgery (with an incision through the belly wall)
- You do not have chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD, a long-term lung condition)
- You have not had lung surgery in the past
- Your blood pressure is under control (not uncontrolled hypertension)
- You do not have acute or chronic kidney failure

This Phase 3 study tests whether using a lung ultrasound scan during surgery can better guide blood pressure and fluid needs. It may help stabilize patients during long operations and reduce complications related to poor circulation or fluid balance.
This study looks at a specific breathing maneuver done while your child is on a ventilator during surgery, and uses ultrasound-related measurements to predict whether they’ll need extra fluids. If it works, it may help doctors give the right amount of fluid and avoid problems from too little or too much.
This study tests if using a special ultrasound exam (VExUS) to guide fluid management during lung surgery can help reduce complications like lung problems or kidney injury. It may help doctors give you just the right amount of fluids.
This study uses ultrasound to help doctors decide how much fluid to give patients after heart surgery. It aims to improve recovery by checking if patients need more fluids.
This study tests a new way to monitor your body's fluid levels during lung surgery, especially for patients who are at higher risk for complications. The goal is to improve recovery and reduce problems after surgery.
This trial uses lung ultrasound to guide how much fluid is given to patients with a bruised lung from chest trauma. The goal is to find the best fluid balance to help you heal.
