First seen May 14, 2026 · Last updated Jun 23, 2026 · Updated 6 times
Summary
This study compares giving oxygen only when a patient breathes in (on-demand) versus the usual constant flow during procedures. Researchers want to see if on-demand oxygen keeps oxygen levels higher and improves carbon dioxide monitoring. About 100 relatively healthy adults will be tested for short periods during sedation.
