Ultrasound test during surgery to predict fluid needs in children
This study looks at a specific breathing maneuver done while your child is on a ventilator during surgery, and uses ultrasound-related measurements to predict whether they’ll need extra fluids. If it works, it may help doctors give the right amount of fluid and avoid problems from too little or too much.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for pediatric patients?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 346 recruiting pediatric patients 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 patients 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 patients 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.
