Freeze treatment could reduce repeat surgeries for scarred airways

NCT ID NCT04996173

Summary

This study is testing if adding a liquid nitrogen spray during a standard airway-opening procedure helps keep the airway open longer. It involves 40 adults with benign airway narrowing who need a procedure to restore their breathing. Researchers will compare the standard procedure alone to the standard procedure plus the freezing spray to see which leads to better airway patency after six months.
