Which breathing mode is safer during lung surgery?
Part of Cancer, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial compares two ways of helping you breathe during lung surgery to see which one keeps your oxygen levels more stable. You will be randomly assigned to breathe either normally or with a special mode during the one-lung part of the surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years or older
- Your body mass index (BMI) must be between 18.5 and 30
- You must sign a consent form agreeing to take part
- You must be able to use the EIT belt (a special sensor belt for monitoring) before surgery
- One-lung ventilation (breathing with only one lung during surgery) must be able to be used

This trial compares two different breathing settings (tidal volumes) during surgery to see which one better prevents lung complications in older adults who are at higher risk. The goal is to find the safest way to ventilate the lungs during an operation.
This trial tests if a customized breathing method during surgery reduces breathing problems after the operation. Patients having minimally invasive lung surgery with one-lung ventilation for more than an hour might benefit from this personalized approach.
This trial tests whether using a lower amount of oxygen during lung surgery helps reduce the risk of lung collapse after the operation. It may lead to better breathing and faster recovery after your surgery.
This trial compares two ways of managing breathing while you have surgery to remove lung cancer. It may help doctors figure out which strategy is safer and works better during the 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 trial tests a new way of using a breathing machine during surgery that removes part of a lung, aiming to reduce lung damage. It may lead to a smoother recovery after surgery.
