Low oxygen after sedated upper endoscopy
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years old or older.
- You will be having an upper endoscopy (a tube with a camera to look at your esophagus and stomach) with sedation.
- You must be able to stay in the recovery area for monitoring after the procedure.
- You must not be having a colonoscopy or combined procedure.
- You must not need a breathing tube or ventilator during the procedure.

This study looks at why some people may develop low blood pressure or low oxygen levels while sedated with propofol during a routine endoscopy. It aims to help doctors better identify who might be at risk, so they can plan safer sedation.
This study tests a new way to monitor your breathing during a sedated endoscopy. A small device measures the carbon dioxide in your breath, which may help doctors catch low oxygen early and prevent complications.
This study tests whether the angle of your head while you are sedated for a gastrointestinal endoscopy affects your oxygen levels. It may help reduce breathing problems during the procedure.
This study tests a special breathing tube (an oropharyngeal airway) used during a sedated GI endoscopy (a scope test of your stomach or bowel) to see if it helps keep oxygen levels normal while you are sedated. It may help prevent drops in oxygen 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 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.
