Doctors test new surgery to help kids with rare skull disorder breathe better
NCT ID NCT01022008
Summary
This study tested a modified surgical technique for children with a rare condition where skull bones fuse too early, which often causes severe sleep apnea. The goal was to see if using more and improved devices during surgery could better open their airways and improve breathing during sleep. Researchers measured breathing patterns before and after surgery in a small group of children to see if the new approach worked better than previous methods.
