New oxygen technique may prevent dangerous drops during routine endoscopy

NCT ID NCT07487051

Summary

This study looked at 222 adults having a sedated gastroscopy to see if a high-flow oxygen device called THRIVE prevents low oxygen levels better than a standard nasal cannula. The oxygen method was chosen by the doctor, not randomly assigned. The main goal was to see how many patients had oxygen levels below 93% for 20 seconds or more. Results could help make this common procedure safer.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to

If THRIVE works better, it could reduce dangerous drops in oxygen during routine endoscopy, making the procedure safer for patients.

What could go wrong

This is a small, completed observational study, not a randomized trial. Results may not apply to all patients or settings, and THRIVE may not prevent all oxygen drops.
