First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study tests two ways of using a breathing machine during weight-loss surgery in people with obesity. One method controls the flow of air, the other controls the volume. Researchers will measure oxygen levels and airway pressures to see which approach keeps lungs working better. Forty adults aged 18–65 with a BMI of 30 or higher will take part.
