Can a gentle oxygen boost make lung biopsies safer and faster?
NCT ID NCT07760727
First seen Aug 12, 2026 · Last updated Aug 13, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial tests whether giving high-flow nasal oxygen during a sedated lung biopsy procedure (EBUS-TBNA) can reduce breathing complications like low oxygen levels and help patients recover more quickly. About 120 adults scheduled for this procedure will receive either high-flow or standard oxygen. Researchers will compare breathing problems, blood gas levels, and recovery times between the two groups.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- High-flow nasal oxygen therapy
- What this could lead to
- If effective, high-flow nasal oxygen could become standard care during sedated EBUS-TBNA, lowering breathing risks and shortening recovery time.
- What could go wrong
- This is a single-center trial with 120 participants, so results may not apply broadly. High-flow oxygen may not reduce complications and could cause discomfort or other side effects.
