Lung function during sleeve gastrectomy
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests how changing the pressure used during breathing (called driving pressure) affects your lung function during sleeve gastrectomy surgery. It aims to help protect your lungs while you are under anesthesia.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your BMI must be between 35 and 40.
- You must have mild to moderate overall health issues (classified as ASA II or III), not severe ones.
- You must be scheduled for a planned, first-time sleeve gastrectomy surgery.
- You cannot have severe lung disease or severe sleep apnea.
- You cannot have serious liver, heart, or kidney problems.

This trial tests two different ways to keep your lungs inflated with air during bariatric (weight-loss) surgery. Researchers want to see which method helps you breathe better and recover faster after your procedure.
This trial tests whether a personalized breathing setting during surgery can lower the risk of lung complications after weight-loss surgery. If you have a high risk of lung issues, you may be eligible.
This trial tests a personalized way of setting the breathing machine during weight-loss surgery to reduce lung stress. It compares a tailored approach with standard care in people with obesity.
This trial tests whether using lower pressure during sleeve gastrectomy surgery is safe and effective. If you are having this weight loss procedure, researchers want to see how the body responds to less pressure from the gas used during the operation.
This study tests a way to adjust breathing pressure during laparoscopic surgery (when you are lying head-down) to protect your lungs. It uses a small balloon in your esophagus to measure pressure and set the best breathing support for you.
This trial tests if a special breathing tube can help protect your lungs during weight-loss surgery. The tube measures pressure in your esophagus to customize your ventilator settings, which may reduce breathing complications after surgery.
