Testing safer breathing tube care in intubated children
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial studies care during placing a breathing tube (tracheal intubation) in children having general anesthesia. It may help improve safety and outcomes around the breathing tube process.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are age 0 to 16 years old.
- You need a breathing tube placed as part of surgery or another procedure under general anesthesia.
- The anesthesia team will do the breathing tube placement for your procedure.
- A parent/guardian can consent (or you can consent if your ethics form allows).
- You (or your guardian) do not refuse consent or withdraw it if consent is required.

This trial looks at ways to improve the safety and quality of emergency breathing tube placement in pediatric critical care and emergency settings. It may help reduce complications and improve how clinicians do these urgent procedures.
This trial tests using a smart checklist to help doctors place breathing tubes more safely in children in the intensive care unit (ICU). It may help improve care for any child who needs this procedure.
This study observes how breathing tube placement (intubation) and other airway care are done during general anesthesia in the operating room and in other anesthesia settings. It may help improve airway management practices in different clinical environments, but you would typically not receive a new treatment as part of an experimental trial.
This study compares two ways of placing a breathing tube in children during surgery: using a video camera laryngoscope or a standard direct laryngoscope. If your child is having a planned surgery and needs a breathing tube, this trial may help determine which method is safer and easier.
This study compares two different devices used to help place a breathing tube in children during surgery. It aims to find out which device works better for young children having planned operations.
This trial is studying how doctors place breathing tubes (intubation) in children during planned surgeries. Researchers will use video to review and improve the process, which may help make future procedures safer.
