Low blood oxygen levels often leads to shortness of breath which can affect patients' activity levels and quality-of-life. Many people with fibrotic ILD and COPD only have low oxygen levels when they are walking or exercising. Oxygen that is only used for walking or exercise is called ambulatory oxygen therapy (AOT). Laboratory studies suggest that AOT improves shortness of breath and exercise ability. However, real-world studies of AOT have not shown similar results. AOT can be given to patients through different types of equipment, most commonly oxygen tanks or portable oxygen concentrators (POCs). While previous studies have suggested that AOT does not significantly improve patients' breathing or activity in the real-world, these studies most often gave all participants the same amount of oxygen with the same device. However, patients with ILD and COPD often have very different oxygen needs during exercise, and POCs and oxygen tanks are very different in how oxygen is administered.\n\nThis trial will test the feasibility of a study to determine whether real-world activity, symptoms, and quality-of-life are different with the use of different oxygen equipment when oxygen therapy has been adjusted to meet each participants' oxygen needs.

Endobronchial Ultrasound-Guided Transbronchial Needle Aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) is an indicated procedure for the diagnosis, staging, and histopathological characterization of primary or metastatic tumors. The procedure is generally performed under moderate or deep sedation to enhance patient comfort and optimize procedural success. Deep sedation has been shown to be a safe and effective approach in terms of respiratory complications in both younger and elderly patients.\n\nHowever, hypoxemia may develop during EBUS procedures due to mechanisms such as mechanical airway obstruction, sedation-related ventilatory depression, and ventilation-perfusion mismatch. A decrease in oxygen saturation is frequently observed during bronchoscopic procedures, with reported rates of up to 94%. Studies have also reported a hypoxemia rate of approximately 25% during EBUS, even with the use of a nasopharyngeal oxygen cannula. Therefore, maintaining adequate oxygenation throughout the procedure is of critical importance. In patients receiving sedation under spontaneous respiration, oxygen support is typically provided via low-flow systems such as nasal cannulae, which can generally deliver flows of up to 15 L\u002Fmin.\n\nIt has been reported that a fiberoptic bronchoscope occupies approximately 10% of the tracheal cross-sectional area and about 15% at the level of the cricoid ring, leading to partial obstruction. EBUS endoscopes have a larger outer diameter and, in addition, may exert more pronounced negative effects on respiratory mechanics due to the balloon mechanism used. The outer diameter of EBUS bronchoscopes typically ranges between 6.2 and 6.7 mm, mechanically occupying a significant portion of the tracheal lumen. This may restrict tracheal airflow, leading to partial obstruction and consequently predisposing to hypoxemia. Therefore, identifying objective anatomical predictors that can predict the development of hypoxemia is of clinical importance. However, to the best of our knowledge, no study in the literature has statistically investigated the relationship between tracheal measurements and hypoxemia occurring during EBUS.\n\nIn this study, the investigators aim to investigate the relationship between pre-procedural tracheal diameter measured by ultrasonography (USG) and the EBUS outer diameter\u002Ftracheal diameter ratio (airway occupancy ratio) with the development of hypoxemia during the procedure in patients undergoing EBUS-TBNA. Additionally, it is aimed to determine the optimal tracheal diameter cutoff value that may predict the development of hypoxemia.\n\nStudy Design and Patient Population This study will be conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki and will be carried out at SBÜ Ankara Atatürk Sanatoryum Training and Research Hospital after obtaining approval from the institutional ethics committee.

For procedures like painless gastroscopy and colonoscopy, patients receive sedation to ensure comfort. However, traditional monitoring (like checking heart rate and blood oxygen levels) can only detect breathing problems after they have already caused a drop in oxygen. This delay can be risky, especially for elderly patients whose breathing function is naturally weaker. This study looks at a better way to monitor patients.\n\nWhat is the new method? This study focuses on a technology called real-time end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO₂) monitoring, also known as capnography.

This provides an early warning system for doctors, alerting them to breathing issues (like a pause in breathing or an airway blockage) much sooner than traditional monitors can.\n\nWhat did the study find?\n\nBased on extensive research and clinical experience both in China and internationally (including the US and Europe), integrating ETCO₂ monitoring into painless digestive endoscopy procedures leads to significant improvements in patient safety:\n\n* Reduces Risks: It can decrease the occurrence of hypoxemia (dangerously low oxygen levels) by up to 31%.\n* Early Detection: It detects breathing problems 17.6 times more often than relying on traditional observation alone, giving anesthesiologists crucial extra time (often seconds) to intervene before a patient's oxygen drops.\n* Safer for Everyone: It is particularly effective in protecting high-risk groups, such as elderly patients and those with mild obesity.\n* Better Outcomes: It helps reduce postoperative complications like nausea and vomiting, and can lead to faster recovery from anesthesia.\n\nValue for Patients, Families, and Providers:\n\n* For Patients \\& Families: This technology means a safer, more comfortable procedure with a lower risk of breathing complications.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether 30% oxygen before extubation after abdominal surgery could reduce hypoxemia incidence after extubation during the recovery period or not, compared to 100% oxygen. 590 patients scheduled to abdominal surgeries, will be randomly assigned to receive 30% or 100% oxygen concentration from the end of surgery to extubation after general anesthesia in the post-anesthesia care unit. The incidence of hypoxemia (SpO2 \\\u003C 90%) from extubation to leaving the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) is the primary outcome.",[28],[377,600,601],"oxygen concentration","atelectasis","2025-12-16",{"date":604,"type":42},"2025-12-19",{"date":606,"type":21},"2025-12-30",{"date":608,"type":21},"2026-06-30",{"name":610,"class":49},"Sixth Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University",{"id":612,"slug":613,"hasResults":12,"nctId":614,"briefTitle":615,"officialTitle":616,"acronym":4,"eligibilityCriteria":617,"healthyVolunteers":12,"sex":17,"minAge":18,"maxAge":292,"enrollmentInfo":618,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":174,"phases":4,"briefSummary":620,"conditions":621,"keywords":4,"overallStatus":94,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":622,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":623,"startDateStruct":625,"completionDateStruct":627,"leadSponsor":628,"locationsCount":80},"100616253","preoperative-rox-index-and-postoperative-hypoxemia-in-bariatric-surgery-100616253","NCT07303205","Preoperative ROX Index and Postoperative Hypoxemia in Bariatric Surgery","Predictive Value of the Preoperative ROX Index for Early Postoperative Hypoxemia in Bariatric Surgery Patients: A Prospective Observational Cohort Study","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Adults aged 18-65 years\n* Scheduled for elective bariatric surgery (laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy or Roux-en-Y gastric bypass)\n* Body mass index (BMI) ≥ 35 kg\u002Fm²\n* ASA physical status I-III\n* Able and willing to provide written informed consent\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Acute respiratory failure, pneumonia, or active pulmonary infection\n* Receiving oxygen therapy or respiratory support (nasal cannula, CPAP, BiPAP, or high-flow oxygen) preoperatively\n* Preoperative SpO₂ \\\u003C 88% on room air\n* Significant cardiac arrhythmia, severe heart failure (NYHA class III-IV), or hemodynamic instability\n* Pregnancy, active malignancy, or current immunosuppressive therapy\n* Inability to complete postoperative follow-up or early discharge before 12-hour assessment",{"count":619,"type":21},80,"This prospective observational study evaluates whether the preoperative ROX index can predict early postoperative hypoxemia in patients undergoing bariatric surgery.
