Virtual surgery predictor aims to end guesswork for Kids' sleep apnea operations

NCT ID NCT04991389

Summary

This study is testing a new computer tool designed to help doctors predict which surgery will work best for children with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Many children continue to have breathing problems during sleep even after surgery, so researchers are using special MRI scans to create detailed, moving 3D models of a child's airway. The computer tool then simulates how different surgical options would affect airflow, aiming to identify the most effective procedure for each child before they go into the operating room.
