Nasal airflow in patients after surgery
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial measures how well air moves through your nose after surgery while you are on a breathing machine. It helps doctors understand nasal function during recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older
- You must be sedated with propofol and fentanyl during the study
- You will have surgery that requires a breathing tube after the operation
- You cannot have a prior brain or nerve injury or condition

This trial tests two types of non-invasive breathing help (NIV and HVNI) for patients who develop serious breathing problems within two days after major surgery. It aims to see which method works better to avoid needing a breathing tube.
This trial uses a non-invasive monitoring device to see if it can help predict when patients can safely have their breathing tube removed after upper abdominal surgery. The goal is to improve the success of coming off the ventilator.
This study tests whether sending a small amount of air through the nose can help reduce shortness of breath in people who have a tracheostomy and are on a breathing machine. If you often feel breathless, this simple approach might make you more comfortable.
This study tests a new type of mask and breathing machine for patients in the ICU who need non-invasive breathing support (NIV). It looks at whether this method helps you breathe better. You may be eligible if you are stable, 18 or older, and can use a mask that fits under your nose.
This study compares different ways of helping patients breathe after surgery while they're being moved to the intensive care unit. Researchers want to find the safest and most effective method for patients who need a breathing tube.
This trial compares two types of breathing support (high-flow nasal cannula vs. non-invasive ventilation) in children who have recently had heart surgery and are at high risk of having trouble breathing after their breathing tube is removed. The goal is to see which method works better to help them breathe on their own.
