Summary

This study tracks 80 children under 18 with a tracheostomy who need anesthesia for a routine airway exam. Researchers want to find out how often serious complications happen and if certain factors like age or ventilator use raise the risk. The goal is to gather data to make anesthesia safer for these vulnerable patients.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors better understand and predict anesthesia risks in children with tracheostomies, leading to safer procedures.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not testing a new treatment. It only looks at current practices, so it won't directly change care or outcomes.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

All children below 18yrs with tracheostomy undergoing follow-up with surveillance airway endoscopy in general anesthesia at the Long Term Intensive Care unit (LIVA) at Karolinska University Hospital in Stockholm Sweden will be studied. This includes a majority of the children with tracheostomy in Sweden.

Ages

Up to 18 years

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

All patients: under the age of 18 years with tracheostomy undergoing surveillance airway endoscopy approved for anesthesia will be included within the time frame of the study (3 years). Patients may be included multiple times during the study period. Exclusion Criteria: Patients will be excluded from the study if the airway endoscopy is a non-elective emergency procedure. Patients undergoing concurrent major surgery during the same session will be included in the study but excluded from analysis of postoperative symptoms (secondary outcome measure). This is because postoperative well-being cannot be reliably attributed to the airway endoscopy alone when major surgery is performed simultaneously. The same patient may be eligible for inclusion at multiple time points during the inclusion period if subject to subsequent airway endoscopies that meet the inclusion criteria.
