Can a simple oxygen mask speed up recovery after endoscopic ultrasound?
NCT ID NCT06704867
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study compares high flow nasal cannula oxygen to standard oxygen therapy in 200 high-risk patients (with a BMI of 35 or higher) undergoing endoscopic ultrasound. The goal is to see if high flow oxygen reduces recovery time and prevents procedure pauses. Participants receive either the high flow device or standard oxygen during the procedure, and researchers measure how quickly they are ready for discharge.
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 cannula oxygen
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could lead to faster recovery and fewer interruptions during endoscopic ultrasound for patients with obesity.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage study with only 200 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. The intervention is a standard oxygen device, not a new drug, so the potential impact is modest.
