Recruiting studies
- NCT07108439Recruiting
Numbing technique for tooth removal in children under anesthesia
This study tests a special numbing technique (intraosseous anesthesia) for removing permanent back teeth in children who are already under general anesthesia for dental treatments. The goal is to see if it helps reduce pain after the procedure.
GhentAges 6–12 - NCT07045116Recruiting
Electronic vs. standard syringe for kids' dental pain and anxiety
This study tests if an electronic syringe causes less pain and anxiety in children during a dental numbing shot compared to a conventional syringe. It is for healthy 6-8 year olds getting their first dental visit and who need a filling on a baby molar on each side of the mouth.
CairoAges 6–8 - NCT06846983Recruiting
Testing a new way to predict numbing success for children's surgery
This trial checks if a simple monitor reading (peripheral perfusion index) can help doctors know if a numbing shot (caudal block) will work well for children having belly or pelvic surgery. It may lead to better pain control during and after surgery.
Cairo, AbbasiaAges 1–5 - NCT03546387Recruiting
Anesthesia and brain thinking changes in children with retinoblastoma
This study looks at whether having anesthesia more than once (for eye/surgery treatment) affects children’s thinking and learning. It may help doctors plan safer care and better follow-up for children with retinoblastoma.
New York, New YorkAges 6–17 - NCT05800639Recruiting
Testing brain-wave patterns during pediatric anesthesia awakening
This study looks at brain-wave activity (measured with sensors) in young children during and after general anesthesia for planned eye surgery. It may help doctors understand why some children become very upset or confused as they wake up.
SeoulAges 2–8 - NCT07581691Recruiting
Ultrasound Stomach Checks Before Surgery in Children
This study tests whether ultrasound scans of the stomach before surgery help keep children safe during anesthesia. Researchers will measure how full the stomach is to make sure children are ready for surgery.
KayseriAges birth–18 years - NCT07371442Enrolling by invitation
Audio distraction and acupoint stimulation for kids during tooth extraction
This study tests two non-drug methods to help children feel less pain and worry during a tooth extraction: an audio-video distraction (like a movie or music) and a special pressure point (acupoint) stimulation on the hand. It aims to see which approach works best for kids ages 5 to 8 who need a baby tooth removed.
Al MansurahAges 5–8 - NCT07762339Recruiting
Comparing two pain blocks for children having testicle surgery
This study compares two pain-relief techniques (erector spinae plane block vs. caudal block) in children aged 1 to 7 years undergoing orchiopexy (surgery for an undescended testicle). The goal is to see which method provides better pain control after surgery. Your child must be generally healthy and meet specific criteria to participate.
Istanbul, şişliAges 1–7 - NCT07740915Enrolling by invitation
Pain relief after heart surgery in children
This study compares two types of pain blocks for children having heart surgery for the first time. The goal is to see which block provides better pain relief after surgery, which could help your child recover more comfortably.
Diyarbakır, DiyarbakırAges birth–18 years - NCT06706375Recruiting
Comparing two types of penile nerve blocks for child circumcision
This study tests two ways of numbing the penis before circumcision in children. The goal is to see which method works better and causes less discomfort.
Lausanne, Canton of VaudAges Up to 17 years - NCT04664517Recruiting
Casting or flexible rods for broken pediatric forearms
This study compares two ways to treat certain forearm bone breaks in children: a cast versus flexible metal rods inside the bone. It aims to see which method works better for healing and hand/arm function.
HelsinkiAges 7–12 - NCT07557576Recruiting
Pain management approaches for children having cleft surgery
This study compares two types of anesthesia (with and without opioid painkillers) for children undergoing cleft lip or palate surgery. The goal is to see which approach better controls pain after surgery and reduces agitation as the child wakes up.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for pediatric anesthesia?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 60 recruiting pediatric anesthesia studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a pediatric anesthesia trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a pediatric anesthesia trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
