Compares treatment options for Inguinal Hernia Repair
Official title Comparison of Laryngeal Mask Airway Versus Endotracheal Intubation in Pediatric Laparoscopic Inguinal Hernia Repair
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07511764
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- Inguinal hernia is one of the most common conditions requiring surgical intervention in childhood, with a reported lifetime prevalence of 1-4%. With the increasing use of minimally invasive techniques such as PIRS (Percutaneous Internal Ring Suturing) among laparoscopic surgical procedures, perioperative anesthesia and airway management have become a critical area of clinical decision-making.
