Oxygen during breathing tube placement in children
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must be between 0 and 6 years old.
- Your child must be scheduled for planned (non-emergency) surgery under general anesthesia.
- Your child must be in good enough health to be classified as ASA I, II, or III (a standard measure of health before surgery).
- Your child should not be on oxygen therapy before surgery.
- Your child must not have any injuries, trauma, or anatomical differences in the ear, nose, throat, or mouth area.

This study uses ultrasound to look at your child's airway before surgery to see if placing the breathing tube might be difficult. The goal is to help doctors plan better and keep your child safe during anesthesia.
This study tests whether giving extra oxygen through a small tube in the nose during placement of a breathing tube helps young children stay safer. It is for newborns and infants up to about 1 year old who need a breathing tube for surgery or other non-emergency procedures.
This trial tests a technique that gives extra oxygen to patients while they are under anesthesia and the breathing tube is being placed. It aims to keep oxygen levels safer during this critical time.
This study tests whether the position your child's head and body are in during extubation (when the breathing tube is removed after surgery) can help keep oxygen levels stable)Skip hypoxemia (low oxygen). It applies to children having tonsil and/or adenoid removal, and aims to make recovery safer and more comfortable.
This study compares different ways to give patients oxygen before anesthesia is used during surgery. Researchers want to understand which method works best for getting oxygen into your lungs safely.
This study tests whether giving extra oxygen through a small tube in the nose (high-flow nasal cannula) during a sedated bronchoscopy can prevent low oxygen levels (hypoxemia) in young children. It may help keep your child safer during the procedure and improve recovery.
