Oxygen flow and brain oxygen during sedated bladder exam
Part of Brain & nervous system, Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study looks at how different oxygen flow rates affect oxygen levels in the brain during deep sedation for a cystoscopy (a procedure to look inside the bladder). It aims to find the best way to keep your brain healthy during the procedure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You are scheduled for a cystoscopy (a bladder exam) under sedation.
- You are in generally stable health (classified as ASA I-III).
- You have no history of stroke, brain injury, or brain surgery.
- You do not have severe heart failure, uncontrolled blood pressure or diabetes, advanced lung disease, or severe anemia.
- No problems with your nose (like a deformity or blockage) that would interfere with the oxygen device.

This study compares two ways of giving oxygen (high-flow nasal oxygen vs a face mask) to see which one keeps brain oxygen levels more stable during procedures done with sedation. If you are having a planned procedure with sedation in a non-operating room setting, this trial might help improve your safety.
This study looks at how giving extra oxygen during surgery affects brain function and confusion (delirium) in older adults. It involves placing a small sensor on your forehead to measure brain oxygen levels.
This study tests whether using a lower oxygen level during lung surgery with one lung collapsed is safe when guided by a brain oxygen monitor. It may help reduce lung injury while keeping the brain healthy.
This study tests how different oxygen flow rates during deep sedation affect the carbon dioxide levels you breathe out. If you are having a short gynecological procedure, it may help make your sedation safer and more comfortable.
This trial tests whether high-flow nasal oxygen (HFNC) reduces low oxygen levels during sedated gastrointestinal procedures. It is for patients with higher health risks (ASA grade III–IV) who need an endoscopy or treatment.
This study tests if high-flow nasal oxygen can prevent oxygen drops during sedated endoscopy in patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea. It may help people who are at higher risk of breathing problems during the procedure.
