Breathing easier: CPAP after balloon surgery may speed recovery in kids
NCT ID NCT06183515
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether using a CPAP machine after balloon dilation surgery helps children with a narrowed windpipe (subglottic stenosis) recover faster and have fewer breathing problems. Researchers compared recovery times and complications like bronchospasm or low oxygen levels in 81 children who either received CPAP or standard care. The goal was to see if CPAP could reduce airway issues and shorten hospital stays.
