Gentler breathing during surgery may cut lung risks, pilot study hopes

NCT ID NCT07277244

First seen Jan 04, 2026 · Last updated Jun 15, 2026 · Updated 21 times

Summary

This pilot study tests whether using a gentler, low-intensity breathing machine during robot-assisted surgery can reduce lung collapse and breathing problems after surgery. About 60 adults having planned robotic surgery will be randomly assigned to either the gentler breathing method or standard care. The study aims to see if this approach is both safe and effective.
