Recruiting studies
- NCT04225975Recruiting

Less invasive surfactant timing with different pre-medications
This study tests whether giving a pre-medication before a less invasive lung treatment (surfactant) improves breathing in premature babies. It may help some babies avoid more invasive ventilation while still getting the lung medication they need.
OuluAges Any age - NCT06027645Recruiting
Crawling therapy for very premature infants
This trial tests if early crawling practice on a special skate can help very premature babies at risk for developmental problems. It aims to improve their movement and brain development.
ParisAges 9 months–10 months - NCT06023056Recruiting
Hepatitis B vaccine after newborn surgery
This trial tests whether giving the hepatitis B vaccine to full-term newborns who had multiple stomach or intestine surgeries is safe and works well. It aims to protect these babies from hepatitis B infection.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges Any age - NCT05604846Recruiting
Probiotic drops for very preterm babies in Scandinavia
This trial studies whether giving probiotic supplements to extremely preterm newborns helps improve health outcomes. It’s meant for babies born very early, and the results could help guide safer early nutrition and care.
Solna, Stockholm CountyAges 5 months–6 months - NCT06145841Recruiting
Gene test to guide infection treatment in AIDS
This study is for people with HIV/AIDS who develop severe pneumonia or septic shock. It uses a special genetic test (metagenomic next-generation sequencing) to find the exact germ causing the infection so doctors can choose the right antibiotic.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–65 - NCT03217578Recruiting
Newborn screening for spinal muscular atrophy in Taiwan
This trial offers testing for spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) to newborns. It aims to identify SMA early so families and doctors can act sooner if results suggest the condition.
Kaohsiung CityAges birth–2 weeks - NCT07255742Recruiting
Lactoferrin to prevent pneumonia in babies on breathing machines
This study tests whether giving lactoferrin (a protein found in breast milk and other body fluids) to newborns on a ventilator (breathing machine) can prevent a lung infection called ventilator-associated pneumonia.
TantaAges birth–3 months - NCT05701514Recruiting
Test in babies with a prenatal lung cyst found on scans
This trial is for newborns who are found before birth to have a congenital lung cyst (CPAM) and who stay symptom-free. It tests an approach for babies with certain CPAM features to see if it’s safer and/or more effective than standard care.
Nijmegen, GelderlanfAges 1 month–1 year - NCT06018792Recruiting
New blood test for faster sepsis diagnosis in children
This trial tests a new, faster way to find bacteria in the blood of children with suspected sepsis. It uses a molecular test that may give results sooner than standard cultures, helping doctors treat infections more quickly.
AmsterdamAges birth–18 years - NCT04217421RecruitingPhase 3
Allopurinol for newborns needing heart surgery with bypass
This trial tests whether the medicine allopurinol can protect the brain and heart in newborns with serious congenital heart disease who need heart surgery soon after birth. It may help reduce injury during and around surgery that uses a heart-lung machine (cardiopulmonary bypass).
GroningenAges Up to 1 month - NCT07850934Recruiting
Melatonin for high blood pressure in the lungs of newborns
This trial tests whether giving melatonin to full-term newborns with high blood pressure in their lungs (pulmonary hypertension) can help improve their breathing and oxygen levels. It may offer a new treatment option for babies with this condition.
Cairo, AbbassiaAges Any age - NCT07837180Recruiting
Music for sleep and comfort in NICU newborns
This study tests if playing two types of music—TUMATA and Mozart—can help babies in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) sleep better and feel more comfortable. If your baby is a full-term newborn in the NICU and breathing on their own, this music therapy might help them rest.
KaramanAges birth–4 weeks - NCT06545227Recruiting
Early vs. Late Monitoring for Gestational Diabetes History
This study looks at whether checking blood sugar levels earlier or later in pregnancy is better for women who had gestational diabetes before. It aims to find the best time to start monitoring to help protect both mom and baby.
LondonAges 17–45 - NCT07774013Recruiting
Early infection testing for premature newborns
This study tests a faster way to check premature babies for infection using a small blood sample taken shortly after birth. It aims to help doctors detect and treat infections earlier.
Graz, StyriaAges Any age - NCT07761689Recruiting
Kangaroo care for pain relief during newborn jaundice light therapy
This study tests whether holding your baby skin-to-skin (kangaroo care) during light therapy for jaundice can help reduce their pain and discomfort. It aims to see if this simple comfort measure is beneficial.
IstanbulAges 2 days–1 week - NCT06594458Recruiting
New method to keep mom and baby together after C-section
This study tests a new procedure to reduce separation between mother and newborn after a planned C-section. It may help babies with mild breathing problems who need a little extra oxygen stay with their moms instead of going to a separate nursery.
RomaAges 1 minute–3 days - NCT06611254Recruiting
Ultrasound to see blood flow in babies getting cooling therapy
This study uses a special ultrasound with a contrast dye to look at blood flow in the brain and kidneys of newborns with birth asphyxia (lack of oxygen) during cooling treatment. It helps doctors understand how cooling affects these organs.
Erlangen, BavariaAges Any age - NCT07747220Recruiting
Abdominal massage for newborn jaundice
This study tests if gentle belly massage can help reduce jaundice in healthy full-term newborns. It may help lower bilirubin levels and support your baby's recovery without extra medication.
