Comparison of Bladder Pressure Versus Regional Intestinal Tissue Oxygenation in Infants

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 29 Jul 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn more about intestinal regional oxygen saturation measurements made with near-infrared spectroscopy and bladder pressure measurements in infants without risk of intraabdominal hypertension. The main question it aims to answer is if - in comparison to bladder pressure - the regional intestinal oxygen saturation measured with near-infrared spectroscopy is stable in the muscle-relaxed, intubated patients and the awake and non-sedated patient. In case of participation the bladder pressure and the regional intestinal oxygen saturation (measured with near-infrared spectroscopy) will each be measured once intraoperatively and once postoperatively. Patients included in this study will be undergoing an operation which necessitates muscle-relaxation, as well as an indwelling urinary catheter during the operation and for a short-time thereafter for other reasons than this study.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Other illness

  • Patients with esophageal atresia who experience pulmonary decompensation and need urgent surgery for fistula clipping

Other

  • Anterior abdominal wall thickness greater than 12 mm measured on preoperative MRI imaging if available
