ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying different methods of helping children breathe during surgery, specifically for those undergoing a procedure called laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair. The researchers want to compare two common ways of providing ventilation: one that ensures a specific amount of air is delivered (called volume-controlled ventilation) and another that adjusts the air pressure to keep the breathing comfortable (called pressure-controlled ventilation). By understanding which method works better, the team hopes to improve the care and safety of young patients during surgery.

To participate in this trial, children must be between 1 and 5 years old and scheduled for the hernia repair surgery. However, children with certain health issues, such as serious lung or heart problems, recent respiratory infections, or those who are significantly overweight, will not be eligible. If a child joins the study, they will receive one of the two ventilation methods during their surgery, and their recovery will be monitored to see how well they do. This research aims to find the safest and most effective way to support children's breathing during surgery.
