New breathing technique may cut lung risks in Kids' chest surgery
NCT ID NCT05386901
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether a personalized breathing method during chest surgery could lower the chance of lung problems afterward in children under 5. Sixty-three kids having chest surgery were split into two groups: one got the standard breathing settings, the other got settings tailored to their lung stiffness. The goal was to see if the tailored approach reduced complications like cough, low oxygen, or pneumonia in the week after surgery.
