First seen Mar 21, 2026 · Last updated May 10, 2026 · Updated 7 times
Summary
This study tests whether using real-time ultrasound to adjust breathing pressure during facemask ventilation can reduce the risk of air entering the stomach in severely obese patients (BMI 40 or higher). About 144 adults having elective surgery under general anesthesia will take part. The goal is to find the safest pressure that still provides good breathing support.
