Is End Tidal CO2 Level Elevation During Upper Endoscopy With CO2 Gas Insufflation Physiologically Significant

NCT04541667 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗

Study Summary

During the course of an endoscopic procedure, air has historically been used to inflate the lumen to provide adequate visualization and allow for the endoscope to advance as necessary. In many adult centers, carbon dioxide is used for insufflation for all procedures. Many pediatric centers have started using carbon dioxide for insufflation during endoscopy based on the adult studies. Few pediatric studies have been done. This study is designed to test whether carbon dioxide is associated with any negative, post-procedural, outcomes in pediatric patients.

What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT04541667

The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT04541667 describes a study currently listed as completed. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 200 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is University of Nebraska, which has 272 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.

The record links to 1 condition, with Endoscopy appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 2 interventions — of which Carbon Dioxide is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.

Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT04541667 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Nebraska. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
