Ventilation methods in children during anesthesia
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Cancer, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study looks at how children are ventilated (helped to breathe) during surgery. It will help doctors understand current practices and improve care for young patients.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child is 16 years old or younger.
- Your child is having general anesthesia (medication to make them sleep for surgery).
- Your child's breathing will be supported with a breathing tube or a mask (LMA).
- Your child will be connected to a breathing machine for at least 15 minutes.
- Your child is not having surgery that uses a heart-lung machine (extracorporeal circulation).

This trial compares a special ventilation method (PCV-VG) to standard care during laparoscopic surgery in children. It aims to see if it helps them breathe better during the procedure.
This study looks at how doctors manage the airways of children (ages 1 to 4) during planned surgeries. It aims to learn about the best ways to safely place a breathing tube. If your child is healthy enough and having surgery that needs a tube, this study may help improve care for kids with similar challenges.
This study compares two ways of delivering breathing support during surgery in children who need a breathing tube. It uses special monitors to see which method works better for the lungs and might help doctors choose the safest approach.
This study tests two different breathing methods during the start of anesthesia in children to see which one causes fewer breathing problems. It may help your child have a smoother and safer anesthesia experience.
This trial compares two different ways of giving breathing support during laparoscopic hernia repair surgery in young children. It may be a good fit if your child is between 1 and 5 years old, generally healthy, and scheduled for this specific surgery.
This study tests a method to keep children breathing easily while their airway is being prepared for surgery. It may help children who are 0-6 years old and having planned surgery under general anesthesia.
