Oxygen dosing during surgery: a key to better lung recovery?

NCT ID NCT06746181

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looked at 95 adults having abdominal surgery to see if different oxygen levels during the procedure affect how well the lungs work afterward. Doctors measured lung stiffness and checked for complications like collapsed lungs or low oxygen. The goal is to find the best oxygen setting to keep lungs healthy during surgery.
