High-flow oxygen for patients at risk of low oxygen during endoscopy
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests whether high-flow oxygen therapy can prevent low oxygen levels in patients at risk during a digestive endoscopy with deep sedation. It might help if you have obesity, stable lung or heart disease, or sleep apnea.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You are obese (BMI of 30 or higher)
- You have stable lung disease or stable heart failure (no hospital stays in the last 6 months)
- You have a STOP-Bang score of 3 or more (indicating risk of sleep apnea)
- You have had sedation-related problems in a past endoscopy

This trial tests if the position you lie in before and during a painless scope procedure affects your oxygen levels. It aims to find the safest way to prevent low oxygen events.
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.
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 whether high-flow nasal oxygen (HFNC) reduces low oxygen levels during sedated gastrointestinal procedures. It is for patients with higher health risks (ASA grade III–IV) who need an endoscopy or treatment.
This trial compares two ways of giving oxygen during a procedure called endoscopic submucosal dissection, done under sedation. It looks at whether high-flow nasal oxygen is better than a standard nasal cannula for keeping oxygen levels stable.
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.
