New oxygen mask may prevent low oxygen during ERCP
NCT ID NCT06681558
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a special oxygen mask that covers the mouth and nose works better than a standard nasal cannula to prevent low oxygen levels during ERCP, a scope procedure for the bile duct. Researchers enrolled 150 adults aged 18-75 and measured how often oxygen levels dropped below 90%. The goal is to find a safer way to deliver oxygen during this procedure.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- procedural oxygen mask
- What this could lead to
- If the mask works better, it could become a standard way to prevent low oxygen during ERCP, making the procedure safer.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, completed study with 150 people, so results may not apply to everyone. The mask might not reduce low oxygen episodes significantly.
