Study reveals hidden risks in Kids' airway devices
NCT ID NCT06073977
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 3,750 children aged 1-12 to find out why placing a supraglottic airway device (a type of breathing tube) can be difficult. The goal was to identify risk factors like the doctor's experience or the child's health history. The study did not test any new treatment, but aimed to improve safety by understanding these challenges.
