High-flow oxygen during robotic surgery
This study tests whether giving extra oxygen through the nose during robotic surgery helps patients breathe better afterward. It may reduce breathing problems after surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You are having robotic surgery on your belly, chest, or pelvis that is not an emergency.
- Your surgery is expected to last at least 2 hours and you will be awake and breathing on your own after surgery.
- You are not pregnant, not already on a breathing tube or tracheostomy, and have no severe nose or face issues that would prevent using a nasal oxygen device.
- You do not have a pacemaker or other implanted electronic device, and you are not expected to go to the intensive care unit after surgery.

This trial tests whether using a special high-flow oxygen mask (called a high-flow nasal cannula) right after major abdominal surgery helps prevent lung problems. It might make your recovery smoother by giving you extra oxygen through small tubes in your nose.
This trial compares two ways of giving oxygen during a heart surgery that uses small chest cuts. One method is a face mask, the other is a high-flow nasal tube. The study will see which keeps your oxygen levels better while you are awake but relaxed.
This trial tests whether using high-flow nasal oxygen after surgery helps frail patients recover better and avoid breathing problems. It includes people having long abdominal, vascular, or chest surgeries who have several health risks like older age, low oxygen levels, or heart or lung conditions.
This study looks at whether giving extra oxygen during recovery from general anesthesia changes how you breathe after surgery. You may be offered different oxygen levels around the time you wake up to see what helps your breathing most comfortably.
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 trial tests if using high-flow oxygen through the nose before surgery helps patients who need emergency surgery and have a full stomach. It may make oxygen levels safer during the start of anesthesia.
