High-flow oxygen during sedation for sleep apnea patients having endoscopy
Part of Brain & nervous system, Cancer, Digestive system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have a high risk of sleep apnea (STOP-Bang score of 5 or more).
- You are scheduled for a sedated endoscopy of the stomach, colon, or both.
- The procedure is expected to last 45 minutes or less.
- You do not have active infections, bleeding risks, or serious lung, heart, kidney, or liver problems.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding, and are not allergic to sedatives or medical tape.

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 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 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.
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 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.
This trial tests whether adjusting a patient's body position during sedation can help prevent low oxygen levels (hypoxemia). If you are having a procedure with sedation and do not have serious heart or lung issues, this study may be a good fit for you.
