Recruiting studies
- NCT07522346Recruiting
Ventilator Pressure Levels During Surfactant Therapy in Preterm Infants
This study tests whether different pressure levels used during a minimally invasive surfactant procedure (MIST)—a way to deliver lung-coating medicine without a breathing tube—affect how well preterm infants' lungs inflate. Researchers hope to find the best pressure settings to help babies breathe more easily.
Saint Albans, VictoriaAges 6 months–7 months - NCT07237139Recruiting
Lung volume changes during breathing support in preterm infants
This study measures how the lungs of preterm babies (born before 30 weeks) expand during synchronized breathing support. It aims to understand how well this ventilator method works for very young infants.
Zurich, Canton of ZurichAges Up to 4 weeks - NCT07372898Recruiting
Helping parents create a calm home for preterm babies after surgery
This study tests a program called H-HOPE that helps parents create a calm, supportive environment for their baby after major surgery. The goal is to improve the baby's recovery and reduce stress for the whole family.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 1 week–2 months - NCT07674953Recruiting
CPAP and oxygen delivery in preterm infants
This study looks at how different levels of CPAP (a breathing machine that helps keep the lungs open) affect oxygen delivery and lung expansion in preterm babies. It may help doctors understand the best settings for infants who need breathing support.
Little Rock, ArkansasAges Any age - NCT06760832Recruiting
Optimizing milk feeding for preterm infants
This trial tests different ways to give milk feeds to preterm babies who are already eating fully by mouth. The goal is to find the best feeding schedule to help them grow and thrive.
Bologna, BolgonaAges Any age - NCT06116747Enrolling by invitation
Support for first-time dads of preterm babies
This study tests a support program for first-time fathers whose preterm babies are in the hospital for more than a week. It aims to help fathers cope and be more involved during this stressful time.
HvidovreAges Any age - NCT07030270Recruiting
Comparing surfactant delivery methods for preterm infants
This trial compares two ways to give surfactant (a substance that helps preterm babies' lungs work better) to preterm infants who need breathing support. It studies whether a small tube placed through the throat or a thin catheter works better for delivering the medication.
Dallas, TexasAges birth–3 days - NCT06878742RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Finding the right dose of dobutamine for very preterm infants
This study is for very premature babies (born before 33 weeks) who have low blood flow from the heart. It tests different doses of dobutamine, a medicine that helps the heart pump stronger, to find the safest and most effective dose.
MadridAges Up to 3 days - NCT07295106Recruiting
Personalized music therapy for preterm babies
This trial tests whether specially selected music can help preterm infants in the NICU. It aims to improve their comfort and development during their hospital stay.
Perugia, PGAges 5 days–2 weeks - NCT06421506Recruiting
Giving surfactant through a thin tube in late preterm babies
This trial tests a less invasive way to give surfactant (a lung treatment) to babies born a few weeks early who need breathing help. It aims to see if this method works as well as standard care.
LondonAges 8 months–9 months - NCT06957769Recruiting
How rising temperatures affect mothers and babies
This study looks at how higher temperatures during pregnancy might affect your health and your baby's health. By joining, you'll help researchers understand how climate change may impact pregnancy outcomes.
Matiari, SindhAges 18 years+ - NCT04541095Recruiting
Milk formula for very preterm babies: more vs less beta-palmitate
This study tests an infant milk formula that has a higher or lower amount of beta-palmitate in babies born very early. The goal is to see if the formula supports healthy growth in preterm infants who are stable and can feed through the stomach.
AnconaAges 6 months–7 months - NCT05170633Recruiting
Warming treatment for very preterm babies after blood transfusion
This study looks at whether a specific “blood warming” approach can help very preterm babies keep their body temperature from getting too low (hypothermia). It’s intended to reduce temperature drops around the time they receive red blood cell transfusions.
Columbia, South CarolinaAges 6 months–7 months - NCT07235345Enrolling by invitation
Lung medication with different oxygen levels for premature babies
This study tests a lung medication called pulmonary surfactant, given with different oxygen levels, to help very premature babies (born before 32 weeks) who have breathing difficulties. The goal is to see which oxygen level works best with non-invasive breathing support.
Henan, ZhengzhouAges 6 months–7 months - NCT07176117Enrolling by invitation
Surfactant via airway device for breathing trouble in newborns
This trial tests if giving surfactant (a natural substance that helps lungs stay open) through a special airway device can help late preterm and early term infants with breathing problems. The goal is to see if this approach works better than current methods without needing a breathing tube.
Chula Vista, CaliforniaAges 8 months–9 months - NCT07275021Recruiting
Brain Injury & Vision Screening in Newborns
This study looks for early signs of vision problems in babies who had brain injuries around the time of birth. It aims to help doctors better identify and predict these issues.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 7 months–10 months - NCT05347238Recruiting
Dopamine or norepinephrine for low blood pressure in very preterm babies
This trial compares two common medicines—dopamine versus norepinephrine—to treat low blood pressure in very preterm babies who have suspected or confirmed late-onset bloodstream infection (sepsis). It may help doctors find which medicine works better and more safely for this specific situation.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 5 months–7 months - NCT07699666Recruiting
Cord clamping timing for preterm babies
This study compares waiting a bit before clamping the umbilical cord versus clamping it right away for babies born between 32 and 37 weeks of pregnancy. It helps determine which approach may be better for preterm infants.
Tunis, Tunis GovernorateAges birth+ - NCT07542301Recruiting
Breathing Patterns in Premature Babies During Extubation
This study watches how premature babies breathe before and after removal of their breathing tube. By measuring breathing patterns, doctors hope to better understand when babies are ready to breathe on their own and improve outcomes.
Newark, DelawareAges birth–6 months - 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 - NCT07098910Recruiting
Surfactant therapy for premature babies with breathing problems
This trial tests whether giving surfactant (a substance that helps lungs stay open) to premature babies with Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS) through a mask on the throat (supraglottic airway) is safe and effective. It may be an option for babies who need extra oxygen but are not on a breathing tube.
HanoiAges Up to 2 days - NCT04304846Recruiting
Follow-up program for very preterm babies at age 3
This trial is part of a regional follow-up program for babies born very early. It looks at how these “extremely preterm” children do as they grow, and can help the care team spot needs earlier at the age-3 visit.
AngersAges 3–6 - NCT07350018RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing Two Surfactants for Premature Babies With Breathing Problems
This trial compares two types of surfactant (Calfactant and Poractant Alfa) given through a less invasive method to very premature babies with breathing problems. It aims to see if one works better at helping them breathe without needing a breathing tube.
BursaAges birth–6 hours - NCT06446453Recruiting
Lung Ultrasound-Guided Surfactant For Preterm Infants
This study tests whether giving surfactant medication guided by a lung ultrasound, instead of by X-ray, helps preterm babies with breathing problems get better without needing a breathing tube. Babies in the study receive surfactant through a thin tube while still on non-invasive breathing support.
