What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study will compare two ways of helping children breathe during surgery—Volume-Controlled Ventilation and Pressure-Regulated Volume Control—to see which one causes less lung collapse. About 88 children will be monitored using lung ultrasound and electrical imaging. The goal is to find a safer approach for young patients under anesthesia.

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 one method works better, it could guide safer breathing support for children during surgery, reducing lung complications.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage observational study, not a treatment trial. Results may not apply to all children or settings.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 88 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Expected to start

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

Inclusion Criteria: * Patients requiring intraoperative mechanical ventilation via endotracheal intubation * Written informed consent obtained from parents or legal guardians. For children capable of understanding, assent will also be obtained based on age and cognitive ability. * ASA (American Society of Anesthesiologists) physical status I-II Exclusion Criteria: * Patients with significant pre-existing lung disease (e.g., cystic fibrosis, severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia, severe uncontrolled asthma, neuromuscular disease with respiratory compromise). * Patients with complex congenital heart disease or significant hemodynamic instability. * Patients undergoing thoracic surgery or procedures that could significantly alter lung mechanics (e.g., pre-existing pneumothorax). * Refusal of parents/guardians or patient to participate in the study. * History of previous intrathoracic procedure.
