Recruiting studies
- NCT03674372Recruiting
Fetal airway blockage procedure for severe CDH during pregnancy
This trial studies a procedure done before birth that partially blocks the baby’s windpipe to help lung development in babies with diaphragmatic hernia. It may help babies with severe lung underdevelopment, but only if specific pregnancy and baby factors are met.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT06938542Enrolling by invitation
Palliative care needs for kids with rare diseases
This study asks children with rare diseases and their families about what kind of palliative care (comfort and support) they need. It aims to understand how to better help families through their child's illness.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 1–99 - NCT06884423Recruiting
Balloon treatment for severe diaphragmatic hernia in unborn babies
This trial tests if placing a temporary balloon in the baby's windpipe before birth can improve survival for babies with a severe form of a diaphragmatic hernia. It is for pregnant women carrying a single baby with a left-sided hernia that is more severe or a right-sided hernia, and whose liver is up in the chest.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05421676Recruiting
Fetal airway procedure for severe congenital diaphragmatic hernia
This trial studies a fetal procedure called FETO that places a small balloon in the baby’s windpipe to help the lungs grow in severe congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). It may help babies with very small lung development after birth, but you must meet specific pregnancy, genetic, and safety requirements.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04429750Recruiting
Cord resuscitation approach for babies with diaphragmatic hernia
This study looks at a specific way to support a newborn’s breathing right after birth when they have congenital diaphragmatic hernia (a birth condition affecting the diaphragm). If you qualify, the team will compare their resuscitation approach to standard care to see if it helps babies in the delivery room.
AmiensAges 8 months–9 months - NCT03980717Recruiting
Balloon procedure for severe congenital diaphragmatic hernia in pregnancy
This trial tests whether placing a tiny balloon in the fetus’s windpipe can help lungs develop and improve severe pulmonary (lung) blood pressure in babies with severe congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). It may lower the chance of breathing and circulation problems after birth, but it requires a specialized procedure and close follow-up in Houston.
Houston, TexasAges 18–45 - NCT03750266Recruiting
3D models to help manage babies with diaphragmatic hernia
This study uses 3D animation and physical models to help plan care for pregnancies where the baby has diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). It may help patients and clinicians understand the baby’s condition better and make management decisions more easily.
Sheffield, South YorkshireAges 18 years+ - NCT02530073Recruiting
FETO procedure for babies with isolated left diaphragmatic hernia
This trial studies a fetal procedure (FETO) that temporarily blocks the baby’s windpipe to help lung growth before birth. It may help babies with severe lung underdevelopment from an isolated left diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) who meet specific pregnancy and fetal criteria.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for congenital diaphragmatic hernia?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 32 recruiting congenital diaphragmatic hernia studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a congenital diaphragmatic hernia trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a congenital diaphragmatic hernia trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
