Bed Position During Sedated Stomach Scope to Prevent Low Oxygen
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests whether changing the angle of your head and upper body during a sedated endoscopy (a camera procedure to look at your stomach) helps keep your oxygen levels stable. Researchers want to find the safest position for patients during this common procedure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are at least 18 years old
- You are scheduled for a sedated endoscopy (painless stomach or colon camera procedure)
- You have signed a consent form agreeing to participate
- Your overall health is rated ASA I, II, or III (your doctor can confirm this rating)
- You are not pregnant
- Your oxygen level is at least 95% before the procedure starts

This trial tests whether adjusting a patient's body position during sedation can help prevent low oxygen levels (hypoxemia). If you are having a procedure with sedation and do not have serious heart or lung issues, this study may be a good fit for you.
This study tracks oxygen levels in adults after a sedated upper endoscopy (a scope down the throat to look at the stomach). It aims to understand how common low oxygen is during recovery and what factors might affect it.
This study tracks patients who receive propofol sedation (a common sleep medication) during routine endoscopy procedures to identify which patients are more likely to experience low blood pressure or low oxygen levels. Results may help doctors predict and prevent these complications.
This study tests a special airway device designed to keep your oxygen levels stable during sedated gastrointestinal endoscopy (a procedure to look inside your stomach or intestines while you're lightly sedated). The device may help prevent breathing problems that can happen during this type of procedure.
This study tests whether a slightly raised head-and-shoulders position (semi-recumbent) helps prevent low oxygen levels after lung surgery. If you are having a small-incision lung removal, it may help you breathe better after the operation.
This trial tests whether giving extra oxygen through a nasal tube during a sedated GI scope (gastroscopy or colonoscopy) helps people with COPD breathe more easily. It may reduce the risk of low oxygen levels during the procedure.
