Comparing two breathing methods during throat surgery
Part of Ear, nose & throat clinical trials.
This trial compares two ways of helping you breathe during throat, voice box, or food pipe exams done with a scope. It aims to find which method is safer and works better for people who do not need extra oxygen.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study compares two ways to help you breathe during surgery on your voice box or windpipe when no breathing tube is used: one uses a small jet of air through a needle, and the other delivers warm, moist oxygen through a special nose mask. The goal is to see which method works better and is safer.
This trial compares two different devices (a video laryngeal mask and a video laryngoscope) used to help you breathe during surgery. It aims to see which tool works better for placing a breathing tube in patients having planned surgery under general anesthesia.
This study compares two ways of giving oxygen (high-flow through the nose vs. a T-piece) to help patients come off a breathing machine safely. It aims to see which method works better during a test of your ability to breathe on your own.
This study tests a special breathing device (a tube placed in the throat) combined with high-flow oxygen through the nose during sedation for endoscopy in people with severe obesity. It aims to see if this combination helps keep oxygen levels stable and makes the procedure safer.
This study tests three different ways doctors can place a breathing tube for lung surgery. Researchers want to see which method works best and is easiest for patients.
This study tests two ways of using a ventilator during laparoscopic surgery to see which one helps patients breathe better afterward. If you are having elective laparoscopic surgery and need a breathing tube, you may be able to join.
