New oxygen method tested in kids during anesthesia
NCT ID NCT05063084
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tested whether giving oxygen through a nasal tube (high-flow nasal oxygen) is better than a facemask for keeping oxygen levels up in children under 11 during anesthesia. 44 children having surgery took part. The goal was to see if the nasal method prevents oxygen drops during intubation.
