Pneumoperitoneum pressure and lung changes during gallbladder surgery
Part of Digestive system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study examines how different air pressures used during minimally invasive gallbladder removal surgery affect the lungs. Researchers will use ultrasound to monitor lung changes and help improve surgery safety.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial compares two different air pressure levels used during laparoscopic gallbladder removal to see which one causes less pain after surgery, including shoulder pain and bile duct injuries.
This study checks how gallbladder surgery affects your diaphragm (the muscle that helps you breathe) and your oxygen levels. If you qualify, you will have an ultrasound of your diaphragm before and after the procedure.
This study looks at how different pain relief methods affect oxygen levels after laparoscopic gallbladder surgery. If you are having this planned procedure and are otherwise healthy (no serious lung or heart issues), you may be able to take part.
This trial compares two different levels of gas flow during anesthesia for people having gallbladder removal surgery. It aims to see how they affect your heart and blood pressure during the procedure.
This trial tests whether using a lower fresh gas flow during anesthesia affects your lungs during gallbladder removal. It helps doctors understand how to keep your lungs safe during surgery.
This study compares different ways of using a breathing machine during laparoscopic gallbladder surgery. It looks at how much pressure is put on the lungs to find the safest and most effective method for people having this type of surgery.
