Tiny valves aim to starve Drug-Resistant lung infections

NCT ID NCT07296055

Summary

This study is testing if small, one-way valves placed in the airways can help heal lung cavities caused by hard-to-treat tuberculosis or similar infections. It will involve 30 patients who cannot have surgery. The goal is to see if collapsing the cavity by blocking air makes it harder for the bacteria to survive and helps patients get better.
