Comparing two ways to support breathing in children during surgery
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study compares two ways of ventilating (helping breathe) children during surgery to see which one keeps lungs healthier. It uses special monitoring to guide the settings.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must be having surgery that requires a breathing tube during anesthesia.
- You (and your child, if old enough) must agree to take part and sign a consent form.
- Your child should be otherwise healthy or have only mild medical conditions (ASA I or II).
- Your child must not have significant lung disease, complex heart conditions, or unstable blood pressure.
- Your child must not be having chest surgery or have had chest surgery before.

This study tests two different ways of helping children breathe during anesthesia to see which one causes fewer breathing problems. It may help doctors choose the safest approach for kids having surgery.
This study measures how your lungs respond to a specific breathing machine setting during planned abdominal surgery. Understanding these measurements may help doctors use ventilation (breathing assistance) more safely during surgery.
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 two ways of using a ventilator during laparoscopic surgery to see which one helps patients breathe better afterward. If you are having elective laparoscopic surgery and need a breathing tube, you may be able to join.
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.
This study compares two different ways of helping you breathe during lung surgery to see which one works better. If you are having lung surgery with a small camera (video-assisted), this study might help improve your recovery.
