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 compares two ways of giving extra oxygen before and during a painless endoscopy (a procedure to look inside your stomach or colon). The goal is to see which position reduces the risk of your blood oxygen levels dropping too low during the procedure. This could help make the procedure safer and more comfortable.
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 study looks at whether giving extra oxygen through a special nasal tube (high-flow nasal cannula) helps patients with COPD breathe more safely during a sedated endoscopy procedure, compared to usual oxygen delivery. It aims to reduce breathing problems during the procedure and improve overall safety.
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 study looks at how common low oxygen levels are after a sedated upper endoscopy (a scope test). If you participate, you will be monitored in the recovery area to see if your oxygen dips, which can help improve care.
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.
