First seen Mar 25, 2026 · Last updated May 01, 2026 · Updated 7 times
Summary
This study looks at whether a special breathing technique (lung volume optimization) can improve heart and lung function in 80 children with congenital heart disease after open-heart surgery. The technique involves adjusting the ventilator settings to find the best lung volume. Researchers will measure blood flow, lung stiffness, and oxygen levels to see if this approach helps children recover faster and need less breathing support.
