3D scan breakthrough could make infant airway surgery safer

NCT ID NCT07257276

Summary

This study aims to create a better tool to predict which infants with Pierre Robin sequence (PRS) will have a difficult airway during surgery. Researchers will use 3D-CT scans from 294 infants to develop a model that measures two specific areas in the throat. The goal is to help doctors plan safer anesthesia and surgery for these vulnerable babies.
