The COVID Dome trial for safer surgery
This trial tests a special clear dome placed over a patient's head during surgery to reduce the spread of COVID-19 droplets. It may be a good fit if you are a healthy or mildly sick adult having planned surgery on your belly, pelvis, legs, or lower arms while lying on your back or with your feet up.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests a new device (Origin Intubation System) to help doctors place a breathing tube during surgery. If you are having planned surgery with general anesthesia and need a breathing tube, this study may be for you.
This trial tests a new device called SafeLM that helps you breathe during surgery. It may be used instead of a standard breathing tube for people having planned surgery with general anesthesia.
This trial tests a special way of breathing support during robot-assisted surgery to protect your lungs. It's for people who are at higher risk of lung problems after surgery.
This trial is testing a new device to help keep your airway open during painless upper and lower endoscopy. It may be helpful for people who are already healthy enough for routine sedation.
This trial tests two types of breathing tubes (SafeLM and I-gel) to see which works better for people having shoulder surgery while sitting up. It aims to find a safer way to keep your airway open during the procedure.
This trial studies a new surgical robot that uses only one small opening in the chest to remove a lung segment or lobe. It aims to see if the robot is safe and effective for patients who need this type of surgery.
