Summary

The purpose of this study is to show that a permissive hypercapnia during mechanical ventilation in children under general anaesthesia will improve cerebral perfusion.

Conditions

  • Hypercapnia

Interventions

OTHER

Normocapnia

Normoventilation in order to have an end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) of 5.5 kiloPascal (kPa)

OTHER
