Brief Summary
Given the scarcity of studies aimed at assessing the effect of anesthesia and m ventilation on the distribution of lung ventilation in pediatric patients undergoing surgery, with the exclusion of thoracic surgery, the present prospective observational study would shed the light on ventilation practice in pediatric anesthesia for surgery. This study wold fill the actual gap allowing the evaluation, through electrical impedance tomography (EIT) of the distribution of lung ventilation across the different phases of anesthesia for pediatric surgery. These insights could contribute to improve clinical practice and research in the management of ventilation in pediatric patients undergoing anesthesia for surgery.
