Breathing numbing medicine during cleft palate surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Genetic & congenital, Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a breathing treatment (nebulized numbing medicine) can reduce pain during cleft palate repair in young children. It may help comfort your child after surgery when they are under general anesthesia.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child is 1 to 7 years old
- Your child is generally healthy for anesthesia (ASA I or II)
- The surgery is planned elective cleft palate repair, with or without cleft lip repair
- The surgery will be done under general anesthesia (fully asleep)
- Your child does not have coronary artery disease or heart blood-flow problems
- Your child does not have hypertension (high blood pressure)

This study looks at breathing problems that can happen during and after cleft lip or palate repair surgery in young children. The goal is to find out how often these problems occur and what factors make them more likely, so doctors can better predict and prevent them.
This trial tests different ways to manage pain after cleft palate repair in young children. The goal is to find which approach works best to lower pain and improve recovery.
This study compares two ways to manage pain after cleft palate repair surgery that uses a bone graft from the hip. The goal is to see which method provides better pain control for children and teens.
This trial tests whether a breathing mist of two medicines (dexmedetomidine plus ketamine) works better than dexmedetomidine alone during cleft palate repair surgery. It may help improve comfort and safety around anesthesia for eligible patients.
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.
This study compares three different medicines (ketamine, nalbuphine, and dexmedetomidine) to help keep children calm and comfortable while their stitches are removed after cleft surgery. It may help find the best way to reduce pain and anxiety in young children during this procedure.
