Comparing two airway devices in children having orthopedic surgery
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial compares two types of breathing tubes (I-gel and Ambu AuraGain) used during anesthesia to see which one causes less air to enter the stomach. It is for children ages 2-12 having planned orthopedic surgery.

This trial compares two devices used to help children breathe during surgery (LarySeal Pro and Ambu AuraGain). It measures how much air gets into the stomach, which can cause discomfort. It is for children aged 6–12 having short elective surgeries (1 hour or less).
This study compares how much air enters the stomach during surgery when using three different breathing tubes in children ages 1–10. The goal is to understand which tube design is safest and causes the least stomach bloating during anesthesia.
This study compares two types of breathing tubes used during general anesthesia to see which works better for people having trauma surgery. It aims to find which tube provides safer and easier airway management during the procedure.
This trial tests two different types of laryngeal masks (breathing tubes that sit in the throat) to see which works better during minor urologic procedures. It is for adults having surgery in a lying-down position (on the back or with legs in stirrups) under general anesthesia.
This trial compares two types of video laryngoscopes (tools with a camera to help place the breathing tube) in children having planned surgery. The aim is to see which one works better for routine anesthesia.
This study compares two types of soft breathing tubes (laryngeal mask airways) used during surgery in children ages 3–6. Researchers want to see which one works better and is safer for keeping the airway open during anesthesia.
