Can a nose tube prevent oxygen dips during robot surgery?
NCT ID NCT07591610
First seen May 21, 2026 · Last updated Jun 19, 2026 · Updated 5 times
Summary
This trial tests whether giving high-flow nasal oxygen before, during, and after robotic surgery can prevent dangerous drops in oxygen levels and reduce lung complications. About 190 adults having long robotic surgeries will be randomly assigned to receive either high-flow nasal oxygen or standard oxygen care. The goal is to see if this simple device can make surgery safer.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
high-flow nasal oxygen (a device that delivers warm, humidified oxygen through the nose)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could lead to a simple way to prevent oxygen drops and lung problems during robotic surgery, making recovery safer.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial (190 people) testing a device, not a new drug. The benefit may be small or not apply to all surgeries. There is a low risk of nasal discomfort or intolerance.
As listed by the trial registrant
The condition terms exactly as the trial's registrant entered them.
