Official title MAsk VEntilation With Paratracheal Pressure In Children. Para Tracheal Compression to Prevent Gastric Insufflation in Children

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05279170

What this study is testing

What it's testing
The use of cricoid pressure to prevent gastric aspiration or regurgitation in case of "full stomach" situation or emergency is still controversial in the adult population. Moreover this maneuver is no more recommended in children by some European pediatric anesthesia societies, because of a lack of evidence of its protective effect against gastric aspiration and its possible adverse effects.
