New ventilation strategy aims to cut lung complications after surgery
NCT ID NCT07186933
First seen Oct 31, 2025 · Last updated Jun 22, 2026 · Updated 38 times
Summary
This trial tests two ways of using a breathing machine during surgery in 200 adults at high risk for lung complications. One method uses standard protective settings, while the other adjusts the machine based on each patient's lung stiffness. Researchers will track lung problems, hospital stay, ICU need, and survival to see which approach works better.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
mechanical ventilation with lowest driving pressure
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a better way to ventilate patients during surgery to reduce lung problems.
What could go wrong
This is a single-center trial with 200 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. The benefit over standard care is uncertain.
