Lung imaging may cut Post-Surgery breathing risks in obesity patients

NCT ID NCT07207772

First seen Oct 31, 2025 · Last updated Apr 30, 2026 · Updated 20 times

Summary

This study looks at whether using a lung imaging tool (EIT) to set the breathing machine during surgery can reduce lung complications like pneumonia or respiratory failure after laparoscopic gastric sleeve surgery. About 118 adults with obesity (BMI 30-55) will be randomly assigned to either EIT-guided settings or standard care. The main goal is to see if the EIT approach lowers the rate of lung problems within 72 hours after surgery.
