Clinical trials: Capnothorax
Capnothorax, One Lung Ventilation
During Chest Surgery, One Lung is Isolated From Ventilation to Improve Visibility, With Carbon Dioxide Introduced Between the Lung and Chest Wall (Capnothorax): the Study Seeks to Optimize Ventilation Through Esophageal Pressure Measurement, Reducing Respiratory Complications.
The objective of this single-center observational study is to improve the safety and effectiveness of chest surgery through the use of a new ventilation technique.

Ventilator-Induced Lung Injury
Optimal Positive End-Expiratory Pressure in Robotic-Assisted Thoracic Surgery
Minimally invasive thoracic surgery is increasingly popular. Recently, a new minimally invasive thoracic approach, robotic-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) has been developed.

- Where
- Spain
- Volunteers
- 30 people
- Sponsor

Pleural Effusion
Exploration of the Pleural Cavity Using a fleXible endoscoPe
EXPLORE is a first-in-human study of single port transdiaphragmatic thoracoscopy using a flexible gastro-intestinal endoscope under two-lung ventilation with controlled capnothorax.
- Trial name
- EXPLORE (NCT02463955)
- Testing

Mediastinal Tumors
Echocardiographic Evaluation of the Change on Pulmonary Blood Flow and Cardiac Function Induced by Capnothorax During One Lung Ventilation
Video-assisted thoracoscopic extended thymectomy (VATET) is a minimally-invasive method for excision of mediastinal mass instead of open thymectomy.
- Trial name
- NCT02220231
- Testing
- capnothorax
- Volunteers
- 25 people

- Trial name
- NCT06784037
- Where
- Spain
- Volunteers
- 60 people
