Improved breathing support during lung surgery
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests a new way to manage breathing during lung surgery that might reduce lung complications after the operation. It could help patients recover better and avoid problems like infection or fluid buildup in the lungs.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You are scheduled for lung surgery (open, video-assisted, or robot-assisted) where one lung will be collapsed during the procedure
- You have not had lung surgery before
- You do not have severe chronic lung disease (like advanced COPD, severe emphysema, fibrosis, or bullae)
- You do not have severe heart failure or uncontrolled asthma
- You are not pregnant, breastfeeding, or plan to become pregnant during the study

This trial tests a special way of breathing support during robot-assisted surgery to protect your lungs. It's for people who are at higher risk of lung problems after surgery.
This study tests a personalized way of ventilating (breathing support) the lungs during chest surgery to see if it reduces breathing problems after surgery. It may help patients recover more smoothly after a minimally invasive chest operation.
This study tests whether giving patients extra breathing support before, during, and after major abdominal surgery can help prevent lung complications like pneumonia or breathing difficulties. The goal is to help patients recover more smoothly.
This trial looks at a part of breathing machines called 'dead space' in adults having planned surgery under general anesthesia. The goal is to learn more about how the lungs work during controlled breathing.
This study tests different ways of setting breathing support during open-heart surgery to reduce lung complications after surgery. It may help improve recovery by protecting your lungs while you are on the heart-lung machine.
This study tests whether adjusting breathing machine settings during lung surgery improves oxygen levels and recovery. If you're having lung surgery, this trial may help doctors keep you safer during the procedure.
