Several methods have been proposed, including measuring end-expiratory lung volume or pulmonary compliance, volumetric capnography, oxygenation indices, electrical impedance tomography, computerized tomography and lung ultrasound.\n* For lung CT examination patients must be transported out to the radiation unit, which carries risk of transfer, high cost, and radiation exposure. The oxygenation method which is the most commonly used, but it is necessary to repeat arterial blood collection many times, which is cumbersome and expensive.\n* Using lung ultrasound (LUS) as real-time guidance during the recruitment maneuver has gained popularity recently owing to its' easy applicability and non-invasive nature. Sonography is a radiation-free methodology which plays an important role in diagnosing pulmonary diseases in children, including obstructive and compressive atelectasis of different origins. Furthermore, lung ultrasound has shown reliable sensitivity and specificity for the diagnosis of anaesthesia-induced atelectasis in children.\n* LUS can identify children needing a recruitment maneuver to re-expand their lungs and help optimize ventilator treatment during anesthesia."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD'], 'maximumAge': '12 Years', 'minimumAge': '2 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Age: 2-12 years old.\n* ASA physical status classification I-II.\n* Undergoing lengthy microsurgery operations\n* and requiring endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation for more than 4 hours.-\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* ASA Physical status classification \\>II.\n\n * Thoracic or abdominal surgery.\n * Preexisting lung disease.\n * Pre-operative chest infection or abnormal chest US findings.\n * Cardiac patients.-'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT03557905', 'acronym': 'RM', 'briefTitle': 'Ultrasonographic Assessment of Lung Recruitment Maneuvers in Children Undergoing Lengthy Microsurgery Operations', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Assiut University'}, 'officialTitle': 'Ultrasonographic Assessment of Lung Recruitment Maneuvers in Pediatric Patients Undergoing Lengthy Microsurgery Operations', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '17200202'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'ACTIVE_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'Group I', 'description': 'Patients will receive recruitment maneuver (RM) followed by decremental PEEP titration 1min. after establishment of mechanical ventilation and after documented lung re-collapse at an FiO2 of 0.5. .', 'interventionNames': ['Device: RM 0.5']}, {'type': 'ACTIVE_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'Group II', 'description': 'Patients will receive recruitment maneuver (RM) followed by decremental PEEP titration 1min. after establishment of mechanical ventilation and after documented lung re-collapse at an FiO2 of 0.3.', 'interventionNames': ['Device: RM 0.3']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'RM 0.5', 'type': 'DEVICE', 'otherNames': ['RM'], 'description': 'Patients will receive recruitment maneuver (RM) followed by decremental PEEP titration 1min. after establishment of mechanical ventilation and after documented lung re-collapse.', 'armGroupLabels': ['Group I']}, {'name': 'RM 0.3', 'type': 'DEVICE', 'otherNames': ['RM'], 'description': "The patient will be ventilated with volume control mode with tidal volume 6 ml/kg, PEEP 3 cmH2O, an inspiratory expiratory ratio of 1:1.5, respiratory rate 20-25 breaths per minute depending on the patient's age and FiO2 of 0.3.", 'armGroupLabels': ['Group II']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '715715', 'city': 'Asyut', 'state': 'Assiut Governorate', 'country': 'Egypt', 'facility': 'Assiut university main hospital, Microsurgery unit', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 27.18096, 'lon': 31.18368}}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Hala S Abdelghaffar, MD', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'Professor of anesthesia, faculty of medicine, Assiut university, Egypt.'}]}, 'ipdSharingStatementModule': {'ipdSharing': 'NO'}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Assiut University', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'investigatorTitle': 'Professor of anesthesia and intensive care, faculty of medicine, Assiut university.', 'investigatorFullName': 'Hala Saad Abdel-Ghaffar', 'investigatorAffiliation': 'Assiut University'}}}}
