About
The main goal of the study is to determine the physiological parameters of sublingual microcirculation in children in different age categories using Sidestream Dark-Field Imaging Method. No significant differences are expected to be found between measurements in healthy volunteers in different age categories.
Full description
After recording the basic anthropometric parameters, pressure, pulse and O2 saturation, each volunteer who meets the inclusion criteria will have their microcirculation measured using a Sidestream Dark-Field (SDF) probe placed sublingually by one examiner using the SDF method. The measurement will be performed in supine position in a disease-free period, with normal diets, at least 2 hours after the last meal in the afternoon, for girls outside the menses period. Premedication or analgesia will not be used. A total of 3 video clips will be recorded from different parts of the sublingual area with a minimum length of 20 seconds in a row, unless the child needs a short break between measurements. The recorded videos will then be processed offline by one evaluator who is trained and experienced in microcirculation evaluation, three best and most stable parts of each video clip will be analysed.
