New study aims to prevent oxygen emergencies during routine ERCP
NCT ID NCT07056075
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether using a breathing mask (positive airway pressure) or a special carbon dioxide monitor (capnometry) during ERCP can reduce the number of times patients' oxygen levels drop dangerously low. About 288 adults having ERCP with sedation will be randomly assigned to one of these two methods or standard care. The goal is to find a simple, cost-effective way to make the procedure safer without needing full anesthesia.
