Lung opening test to guide fluids during surgery
Part of Heart & circulation, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests whether a standard lung-opening procedure during anesthesia can help doctors predict if a patient needs more fluids. It may help keep blood pressure stable during surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- 18 years or older
- Healthy or mildly ill (ASA I or II)
- Having planned (not emergency) surgery on the body, not the heart or lungs
- Under general anesthesia
- Able to give written consent

This trial tests different time intervals for a lung-opening technique (alveolar recruitment) during planned abdominal surgery, aiming to restore 90% of lung volume. It may help lower the risk of lung complications after surgery.
This trial tests a special breathing technique during surgery to see if it helps children's lungs work better. It may be relevant for children having surgery that lasts at least 2 hours.
This trial tests a quick breathing maneuver during surgery to see if it can guide how much fluid to give, aiming to improve recovery and stability.
This trial compares two methods of opening the lungs (recruitment maneuvers) after heart-lung bypass to see which works better. The study aims to help patients recover their lung function more quickly after cardiac surgery.
