Ventilator settings and lung health during heart bypass surgery
Part of Heart & circulation, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at how different ventilator settings during heart surgery affect lung complications afterward. It aims to find the safest way to support breathing during surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You are scheduled for a first-time, planned heart bypass surgery.
- Your surgery will use a heart-lung machine.
- You are not currently on a breathing machine before surgery.
- You do not have advanced lung disease.

This study compares two ways of managing the breathing machine during coronary bypass surgery — one that controls pressure and one that controls airflow — to see which better protects your lungs and diaphragm. If you are having this surgery, the results may help improve your recovery.
This study looks at how different breathing machine settings during laparoscopic surgery affect the lungs. It will help doctors make ventilation safer for patients, especially those with lung issues.
This study compares two ways of setting the ventilator during surgery to reduce lung complications. Researchers will test whether using a lower 'driving pressure' (a setting on the breathing machine) helps protect the lungs better than usual care. It is for adults having high-risk surgeries under general anesthesia with a breathing tube.
This study looks at how different ventilator settings affect patients during abdominal surgery. It may help doctors improve breathing support during operations.
This trial tests a lung-friendly breathing method during coronary artery bypass surgery, using a personalized ventilator setting to protect your lungs. It may help reduce lung complications after surgery.
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.
