PEEP During Induction of Anesthesia in Small Children
Not Applicable
Completed
- Conditions
- Pediatric Anesthesia
- Registration Number
- NCT03540940
- Lead Sponsor
- Seoul National University Hospital
- Brief Summary
Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) applied during induction of anesthesia prevents atelectasis formation and increases the duration of nonhypoxic apnea in obese and nonobese patients. PEEP also prevents atelectasis formation in pediatric patients. Because pediatric patients arterial desaturation during induction of anesthesia develops rapidly, we studied the clinical benefit of PEEP applied during anesthesia induction.
