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 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 looks at newborns on breathing machines to find signs that predict whether they can safely come off the machine. It aims to help doctors make better decisions about when to remove the breathing tube.
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 study looks at patients in the ICU who have been on a breathing machine. It tests whether a simple ultrasound along with a standard test can help predict if the patient will breathe well after the tube is removed, potentially preventing complications.
This study checks how well a soft breathing device (laryngeal mask) sits in children during surgery using ultrasound, and if any problems occur afterward. It may help doctors make anesthesia safer for kids.
