Compares treatment options for Airway Stenosis
Official title Flow-Controlled Versus Volume-Controlled Ventilation During Balloon Dilatation Under Direct Laryngoscopy
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07430124
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- This prospective trial aims to compare the effects of flow-controlled ventilation (FCV) and volume-controlled ventilation (VCV) on airway pressures and oxygenation in adult patients undergoing balloon dilatation under direct laryngoscopy. Airway procedures performed under general anesthesia are associated with unique respiratory mechanics and limited ventilation conditions, making the choice of an optimal ventilation strategy particularly important.
