This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
Doctors need reliable ways to monitor babies' abdominal pressure during and after surgery to make sure their organs are getting enough oxygen. This trial compares two measurement methods: one that measures pressure through a catheter already placed in the bladder, and another that uses a special light-based sensor to measure oxygen levels in the intestines. The study will help doctors understand which method works better and is more stable in babies who are asleep during surgery versus awake afterward.
Sometimes after surgery, dangerous pressure can build up inside a baby's abdomen, which can harm their organs if not caught early. Doctors currently use bladder pressure to check for this problem, but the new oxygen-measuring method might be better, faster, or more accurate. This trial will determine which approach is more reliable.

If your infant is enrolled, two simple measurements will be taken as part of their surgical care—one while they're asleep under anesthesia during surgery, and one after surgery while they're awake or lightly sedated. Both measurements happen through devices already in place for their medical care (a urinary catheter and a small sensor on the skin), so no additional procedures are needed. Your involvement is mainly providing consent, and the measurements take only a few minutes each.
