Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are adult patients aged 18-60 scheduled for impacted molar extractions with a procedure time between 20 to 60 minutes.

Probably not a fit

Patients with respiratory diseases, severe nasal passage obstructions, or those outside the specified age and BMI range may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies

This study evaluates the effectiveness of nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) masks versus nasal airways in providing non-invasive ventilation support during impacted molar tooth extractions performed under deep sedation. A total of 60 adult patients will be included, with half receiving nasal CPAP masks and the other half receiving nasal airways. The study will monitor various parameters such as blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen saturation, and ventilation metrics to assess patient comfort and safety during the procedure. The aim is to determine which method offers better respiratory support and overall patient experience during dental surgeries.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could enhance patient comfort and safety during dental procedures requiring sedation.

How similar studies have gone: While the approach of using non-invasive ventilation during dental procedures is established, this specific comparison of nasal CPAP masks and nasal airways is relatively novel.
