Best position to prevent low oxygen during painless endoscopy
Part of Digestive system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests if the position you lie in before and during a painless scope procedure affects your oxygen levels. It aims to find the safest way to prevent low oxygen events.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You have an ASA physical status of I, II, or III (healthy to stable chronic illness)

This trial tests whether high-flow oxygen therapy can prevent low oxygen levels in patients at risk during a digestive endoscopy with deep sedation. It might help if you have obesity, stable lung or heart disease, or sleep apnea.
This study tests whether lying on your side versus on your back helps maintain better oxygen levels during and after a stomach/intestine viewing procedure. The trial includes patients with lung conditions to see what works best for different people.
This study tests whether your body position during recovery from sedated endoscopy (a camera procedure to examine your stomach and colon) affects your oxygen levels. The researchers want to find the best recovery position to keep your oxygen levels stable and safe.
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.
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 trial tests if watching carbon dioxide levels in your breath can give an early warning of low oxygen during a painless stomach and colon exam. It aims to make these procedures safer by catching breathing problems quickly.
