New drug test aims to stop dangerous lung damage during surgery
NCT ID NCT06743243
Summary
This study is testing if a medicine called tegoprazan can prevent a serious complication called aspiration during surgery. Aspiration happens when stomach contents accidentally enter the lungs, which can cause pneumonia or severe lung injury. Researchers are comparing tegoprazan against another acid-reducing drug and a placebo in 174 patients having elective surgery to see which one best reduces stomach acid right after anesthesia begins.
