Atelectasis After Inhalation or Intravenous Induction in Pediatric Anesthesia

NCT06069414 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 326

Last updated 2024-04-17

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Children have a highly compliant chest wall and atelectasis formation occurs often during pediatric anesthesia. Inhalation induction is commonly performed in pediatric anesthesia but it is still unclear if this can have an effect on the development of atelectasis. Aim of this study is to investigate the impact of inhalation versus intravenous induction on atelectasis formation during anesthesia induction in children. Atelectasis will be evaluated with lung ultrasound before induction and right after induction.

Conditions

  • Atelectasis
  • Pediatric Anesthesia

Interventions

OTHER

Type of anesthesia induction

Patients will receive inhalatory or intravenous anesthesia at their choice; both groups will be evaluated with lung ultrasound after induction to detect ultrasonografic signs of atelectasis
