Nasal airway and oxygen for stomach scope in obesity
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a breathing tube placed in the nose (nasopharyngeal airway) combined with high-flow oxygen can improve safety during painless gastroscopy in people with obesity. It may help you breathe better while sedated.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests a special breathing tube to see if it can prevent low oxygen levels during sedated endoscopy in people with obesity. If you are scheduled for both an upper endoscopy and colonoscopy, this study may help make the procedure safer.
This study tests if high-flow nasal oxygen can prevent oxygen drops during sedated endoscopy in patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea. It may help people who are at higher risk of breathing problems during the procedure.
This trial tests a special mouth-and-throat device designed to help you breathe easier during a routine endoscopy or colonoscopy. If you are a generally healthy adult scheduled for one of these procedures, you may be able to join.
This trial tests a new way to manage the airway (the breathing tube) in people with obesity who are having a painless stomach and colonoscopy. It aims to see if this new approach improves safety and comfort during the procedure.
This trial tests whether giving extra oxygen through a nasal tube during a sedated GI scope (gastroscopy or colonoscopy) helps people with COPD breathe more easily. It may reduce the risk of low oxygen levels during the procedure.
This study tests whether high-flow oxygen delivered through the nose helps children breathe better during a sedated procedure to look inside their lungs. Researchers want to see if this oxygen method prevents low blood oxygen levels during the procedure.
