Positions During Extubation to Prevent Low Oxygen in Kids
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests whether different positions during the removal of the breathing tube (extubation) can help prevent low oxygen levels in children after ENT surgery. It may help your child recover more safely.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child’s age must be between 2 and 10 years old.
- Your child should be in good health (ASA I or II) with no serious medical conditions.
- Your child is scheduled for a tonsillectomy, adenoidectomy, or adenotonsillectomy (ENT surgery).
- You (the parent or guardian) must agree to participate in the study.

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.
This trial tests if placing children on their side during breathing tube removal (extubation) after tonsil and adenoid surgery can improve safety and recovery. It may help reduce breathing problems or other complications.
This study looks at whether changing your body position after surgery can help improve oxygen levels if they drop too low. It's for patients who had general anesthesia with a breathing tube and may benefit from simple position changes to breathe better.
This trial tests if different oxygen levels before removing a breathing tube after abdominal surgery can prevent low oxygen levels in the recovery room. It may help patients avoid breathing problems after waking up.
This trial tests whether adjusting a patient's body position during sedation can help prevent low oxygen levels (hypoxemia). If you are having a procedure with sedation and do not have serious heart or lung issues, this study may be a good fit for you.
This trial tests if the position you lie in before and during a painless scope procedure affects your oxygen levels. It aims to find the safest way to prevent low oxygen events.
