New study to check how well bronchoscopy works for kids who inhale objects

NCT ID NCT07150689

First seen Jun 26, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This study will look at how well bronchoscopy works to remove objects that children accidentally inhale. About 75 children under 18 with suspected foreign body aspiration will be included. Doctors will use either a rigid or flexible scope to find and remove the object, and then check for any complications. The goal is to see how often the object is successfully removed and what problems might occur.
