Combined monitoring to predict safe breathing tube removal
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests whether combining three monitoring tools can help doctors predict if it's safe to remove your breathing tube after surgery. The tools measure your breathing effort, muscle strength, and depth of anesthesia, which may help reduce breathing problems after extubation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- Your surgery is elective (planned, not an emergency).
- You will have general anesthesia with a breathing tube in your windpipe.
- You do not have severe lung, nerve, or brain conditions that affect breathing.
- Your breathing tube is expected to be removed in the operating room before you go to recovery.
- You are not expected to need a breathing machine after surgery.

This study watches patients after major surgery to see which factors may increase the chance of needing a breathing tube again. It helps doctors better predict and prevent breathing problems in the intensive care unit.
This study looks at newborns on breathing machines to find signs that predict whether they can safely come off the machine. It aims to help doctors make better decisions about when to remove the breathing tube.
This study tests whether using a special tube and monitoring technique during surgery can reduce breathing problems after the operation. It may help patients recover better after certain types of surgery.
This study uses ultrasound to check if patients are ready to have their breathing tube removed. It aims to help doctors decide the best time for removal, which could reduce complications.
This trial tests a new, non-invasive breathing monitor to help doctors decide when it's safe to remove the breathing tube after upper abdominal surgery. It aims to reduce complications by predicting who will breathe well on their own.
This study tests whether a special monitor can help doctors know when it's safe to take a breathing tube out after surgery in the ICU. The monitor looks at pain signals, and the goal is to make the process of breathing on your own again more comfortable.
