New breathing technique during lung surgery could cut complications
NCT ID NCT07623395
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 02, 2026 · Updated 2 times
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.
