ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at the use of high-flow nasal oxygen during deep sedation in young children who need dental treatment. The researchers want to see how well this method works and whether it is safe for kids aged 3 to 7 years old who will be undergoing procedures that are expected to take more than an hour.

To be eligible for this study, children must need deep sedation for their dental work and be within the specified age range. However, if a child has certain health conditions or allergies that could make them unsuitable for this type of sedation or the use of high-flow nasal oxygen, they may not be able to participate. If a child is enrolled in the study, their parents can expect careful monitoring to ensure their safety and comfort during the dental procedures. Overall, this trial aims to improve the way we help children feel calm and breathe well during dental treatments.
