Can breathing tube leak predict stridor in children?
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study monitors air leaks around a child's breathing tube to see if it can help predict stridor (noisy breathing) after the tube is removed. If you have a child aged 0–16 who has been on a breathing tube for at least 6 hours, they may be eligible.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Child must be between 0 and 16 years old.
- Child must have had a breathing tube for at least 6 hours.

This study looks at patients who are ready to have their breathing tube removed and checks how to predict who might struggle after extubation. It’s observational, meaning your care won’t be changed—researchers are gathering information to improve future predictions.
This study looks at how doctors can safely remove the breathing tube (extubation) in children who need a ventilator. It tests a specific method of observing how well a child breathes on their own before removing the tube. This could help doctors decide the best time to try extubation.
This study looks at why some children in the pediatric ICU have trouble coming off the breathing machine (ventilator). If your child is ready to try stopping the ventilator, this trial will help doctors understand what may make that transition safer.
This trial studies how to predict who is most likely to develop a noisy, tight throat (stridor) after doctors remove the breathing tube following a jaw-stabilizing surgery. It may help clinicians spot higher-risk patients earlier so they can take preventive steps.
This study watches patients after major surgery to see which factors may increase the chance of needing a breathing tube again. It helps doctors better predict and prevent breathing problems in the intensive care unit.
This trial uses ultrasound to check if patients on a breathing machine are ready to have the tube removed. It may help doctors decide the safest time to try stopping the breathing machine.
