Brain oxygen monitored in sick kids during resuscitation
NCT ID NCT03731104
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how brain blood flow and oxygen levels change when doctors treat critically ill children for shock or very low blood pressure. Researchers used a special light-based device (NIRS) and ultrasound to monitor 27 children in the intensive care unit. The goal was to understand how the brain responds during emergency treatment, which could help improve care for these young patients.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors better monitor brain health during emergency treatment for shock or low blood pressure in children.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed observational study with only 27 participants, so findings may not apply broadly. It does not test a new treatment.
