Summary

This study observes 600 children under 10 to find the best criteria for safely removing their breathing tubes after surgery using only IV anesthesia (no gas). Researchers will track how often removal is successful and if any problems like breathing trouble occur. The goal is to improve safety and create better guidelines for this common procedure.

What could go wrong: This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It will not test a new drug or therapy, and results may not apply to all children or anesthesia types.
