NCT ID NCT07347301
First seen Jan 16, 2026 · Last updated May 24, 2026 · Updated 23 times
Summary
This study looks at whether using only a head drape during pediatric tonsillectomy leads to more infections than full-body draping. About 200 children under 18 will be randomly assigned to one of the two methods. Researchers will also measure waste and costs to see if a simpler setup is both safe and more efficient.
