Blood tests to predict nausea after testicle surgery in children
This trial looks at whether certain blood tests can predict nausea and vomiting after surgery to fix undescended testicles in young children. It involves taking a blood sample before the procedure to check for markers of inflammation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child is between 1 and 8 years old
- Your child is scheduled for surgery to fix an undescended testicle
- Your child has no signs of an active infection
- Your child has not had nausea or vomiting after a previous surgery
- You (the parent or guardian) can sign a consent form

This study compares two common medicines—ondansetron and dexamethasone—given during surgery to prevent nausea and vomiting after the operation. It aims to find out which one works better for children having minor procedures.
This trial compares two pain medicines given during laparoscopic surgery to see which one causes less nausea and vomiting after surgery. If you are at high risk for post-surgery nausea, this study might help you recover more comfortably.
This study looks at whether a simple blood test and how your heart responds during anesthesia can predict complications after major cancer surgery. It may help doctors better prepare patients for surgery.
This study compares two ways to block pain after testicle-fixing surgery in young children. Your child will get general anesthesia, and then receive either a numbing injection near the belly or one near the tailbone to see which provides better pain relief.
This study tests if giving a steroid (dexamethasone) and using special monitoring during surgery can lower the chance of nausea and vomiting after your child's tonsil or adenoid removal. It may help your child feel better sooner after the operation.
This trial checks if a simple monitor reading (peripheral perfusion index) can help doctors know if a numbing shot (caudal block) will work well for children having belly or pelvic surgery. It may lead to better pain control during and after surgery.
