Completed
Conditions
Diaphragm Dysfunction
Interventions
Device: Diaphragm ultrasound
Registration Number
NCT04400370
Lead Sponsor
Seoul National University Hospital
Brief Summary

In children undergoing pulmonary resection, the diaphragm function is evaluated using ultrasound before and after surgery to evaluate the incidence of diaphragm dysfunction after pulmonary resection. In addition, we examine if there is a relationship between diaphragmatic dysfunction and pulmonary complications, including postoperative lung atelectasis.
