Listening to lungs during surgery: can sensors make anesthesia safer?
NCT ID NCT07280546
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether electronic stethoscopes placed on the chest can accurately monitor breathing in 30 adults under general anesthesia. The goal is to help anesthesiologists quickly detect breathing problems like airway blockages or low airflow. If successful, this approach could improve safety during surgery without extra invasive procedures.
