NCT ID NCT07623395

First seen Jun 05, 2026 · Last updated Jun 09, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests a new ventilation method called flow-controlled ventilation (FCV) during lung surgery, comparing it to standard volume-controlled ventilation. About 140 adults having elective thoracic surgery with one-lung ventilation will take part. The goal is to see if FCV is feasible and safe in a multi-center setting, and to gather data for a larger future trial on reducing postoperative lung complications.
