Do surgical drains help kids heal better?

NCT ID NCT07148895

Summary

This study aims to find out if placing a small tube (drain) during a common neck surgery for children leads to better recovery. Kids having surgery to remove a congenital neck cyst will be randomly assigned to have the surgery with or without a drain. Doctors will then track their healing to see if one method results in fewer complications, infections, or return hospital visits.
