About this study

Official title: The Effect of Perioperative Lung Ultrasonography on Postoperative Outcomes in Children Undergoing Fast-track Cardiac Surgery

The investigators evaluate the usefulness of lung ultrasonography in the perioperative period for postoperative outcomes in children undergoing fast track cardiac surgery.

Read the detailed description

Some appropriate intervention such as recruitment maneuver, chest tube insertion, or diuretics will be applied depending on lung ultrasound findings.

Being tested
Treatment according to lung ultrasonography

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Treatment according to lung ultrasonographyOther

Study groups in NCT03527862
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Control groupNo interventionNo intervention is performed. Lung ultrasonography is performed within 4 hours after surgery for diagnostic purpose.
lung ultrasonography groupExperimentalLung ultrasonography is performed three times; after tracheal intubation, before surgery end, and within 4 hours after surgery. In this group, respiratory management is performed according to diagnosis.
