New oxygen device may make endoscopy safer for High-Risk patients
NCT ID NCT07439822
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether high-flow oxygen therapy can prevent low oxygen levels (hypoxemia) in patients at higher risk during sedated digestive endoscopy. The trial includes 326 adults with obesity, sleep apnea, or stable lung or heart conditions. Researchers will compare high-flow oxygen with standard low-flow nasal cannulas to see which is 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 medical oxygen insufflation
What this could lead to
If it works, this could make digestive endoscopy safer for patients with obesity, sleep apnea, or lung disease by reducing dangerous drops in oxygen levels.
What could go wrong
This is a phase 4 study, so the intervention is already in use; however, it may not show a clear benefit over standard low-flow oxygen, and results may not apply to all patient groups.
