Lung ventilation during chest surgery
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at how a special breathing machine setting affects patients during chest surgery when only one lung is used for breathing. It may help doctors improve care for people having lung or chest operations.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You are having chest surgery that requires one lung to be ventilated for more than one hour.
- You are in generally good health (classified as ASA I-IV).
- You can provide written consent to participate.

This study looks at different ways to use a breathing machine during lung surgery to see which method helps keep oxygen levels stable and lowers the chance of lung problems after surgery. You might benefit from taking part if the right breathing method could help you recover better.
This study is testing a special way of breathing during lung surgery to help protect your lungs and reduce complications. If you are having a lobectomy, this approach might help you recover better.
This study tests a personalized way of ventilating (breathing support) the lungs during chest surgery to see if it reduces breathing problems after surgery. It may help patients recover more smoothly after a minimally invasive chest operation.
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.
This study tests different breathing settings during lung surgery to see which one helps keep your lungs healthy. It may help you breathe better after surgery.
This study tests whether using only one lung for breathing during heart surgery can reduce lung complications after the operation. It may help patients at higher risk, such as those over 65 or having longer surgeries.
