Study comparing breathing settings during lung surgery
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial reviews breathing settings used during surgery on one lung to see if a specific tool can help prevent breathing problems.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Must be 18 years or older
- Must have a breathing tube and be on a ventilator that controls breathing volume during lung surgery
- Blood gas data from surgery must be available
- Your sex, height, and actual weight must be recorded

This trial compares two different breathing settings (tidal volumes) during surgery to see which one better prevents lung complications in older adults who are at higher risk. The goal is to find the safest way to ventilate the lungs during an operation.
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.
This study compares different ways of using a breathing machine during laparoscopic gallbladder surgery. It looks at how much pressure is put on the lungs to find the safest and most effective method for people having this type of surgery.
This trial looks at a part of breathing machines called 'dead space' in adults having planned surgery under general anesthesia. The goal is to learn more about how the lungs work during controlled breathing.
This study tests a new way to monitor breathing in patients who are on a ventilator right after heart surgery. It may help doctors adjust settings more accurately.
This trial compares two ways of helping you breathe during chest surgery: flow-controlled ventilation and volume-controlled ventilation. The goal is to see which method works better for oxygen and lung protection while one lung is temporarily deflated.
