Recruiting studies
- NCT06642285Recruiting
Preventing nasal injuries in preterm babies on breathing support

Study of Eylea for preterm babies with retinopathy of prematurity in the UK
This study collects information on how the medicine Eylea is given to preterm babies with retinopathy of prematurity (an eye problem in premature infants) using a special dosing device. The goal is to see how the treatment works in everyday hospital care.
Multiple LocationsAges Up to 1 year - NCT07202299Recruiting
Weaning preterm babies off high-frequency breathing machines
This trial tests two different ways to safely take preterm babies off a special breathing machine (HFOV). It aims to find which method works better for babies with breathing problems (respiratory distress syndrome).
Al MansurahAges Any age - NCT03736707Recruiting
Testing two breathing machines in very preterm babies
This study compares two ways of helping very preterm infants breathe: a special high-frequency ventilation method versus the standard mechanical ventilator. It aims to see which method works better for preterm babies with breathing failure soon after birth.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 1 minute–1 hour - NCT05017389Recruiting
Long-term health follow-up for premature newborns
This study follows babies born early (premature) over the long term to learn how they grow and develop. It mainly helps doctors understand long-term health needs after early birth.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 2 weeks–4 months - NCT04430790RecruitingPhase 3
Doxapram for apnea in very preterm babies on breathing support
This trial studies whether the medicine doxapram can better treat breathing pauses (apnea) in very preterm babies who are already on breathing support in the NICU. It aims to reduce the need for extra interventions and improve outcomes in this high-risk group.
Brussels, Avenaue Hippocrate 10Ages 5 months–7 months - NCT04911452Recruiting
Calmer NICU care for very preterm babies
This study tests a calmer approach in the NICU to help very preterm babies grow and develop their brains. It may be helpful if your baby needs breathing support and is in the early weeks of life.
Vancouver, British ColumbiaAges 6 months–7 months - NCT07514481Recruiting
Lung ultrasound comparison of two surfactant delivery methods in preterm babies
This study compares two ways of giving surfactant (a lung-coating medicine) to newborns with breathing trouble: LISA (a gentler, less invasive method) versus traditional breathing tube delivery. Researchers will use ultrasound to see how the medicine spreads in each baby's lungs to find the best approach.
DohaAges 6 months–10 months - NCT07216053Recruiting
Lung ultrasound to predict breathing problems in late preterm babies
This study uses lung ultrasound to see if it can predict which late preterm babies (born 34–36 weeks) might have trouble breathing after birth. The goal is to find these babies early so they can get the right care sooner.
Hackensack, New JerseyAges 8 months–8 months - NCT07162285Enrolling by invitation
Bubble CPAP for Preterm Babies with Breathing Problems
This trial tests a special breathing support called bubble CPAP, given right after birth in the delivery room, to help preterm babies (born before 34 weeks) who are having trouble breathing. It aims to see if starting this treatment early can improve their breathing and health.
DhakaAges 5 minutes–30 minutes - NCT07088302Recruiting
Lactase enzyme for feeding intolerance in preterm babies
This trial tests if giving lactase enzyme supplements helps preterm babies (born at or before 32 weeks) tolerate their feedings better. If your baby was born early and started feeding within the first few days of life, this study may be a good fit.
AlexandriaAges 3 days–1 month - NCT05617833RecruitingPhase 1
Test EPO and melatonin for brain bleeding in very preterm babies
This Phase 1 trial studies whether giving erythropoietin (EPO) and melatonin is safe in very preterm infants who have bleeding in the brain (intraventricular hemorrhage) or significant nearby brain injury. It aims to see if these medicines can be given safely during the early days after birth.
St. Petersburg, FloridaAges 12 hours–2 months - NCT04413994Recruiting
Exclusive breast milk study in preterm babies
This study tests whether feeding extremely preterm babies only human milk (no formula) affects early health outcomes, including risks that may develop later. It also includes term-born babies for comparison. The study is mainly about feeding and safety, and you would follow the study’s feeding plan.
Innsbruck, TyrolAges 1 day–5 years - 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.
Taichung, TaiwanAges birth–1 day - NCT05848895Recruiting
Osteopathy treatment for infants with positional head shape
This study tests an osteopathic manual therapy plan (hands-on treatment) for babies with positional plagiocephaly, aiming to improve head shape and comfort. It also asks families to attend multiple treatment and measurement visits so researchers can track change over time.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 1 day–4 months - NCT07364903Recruiting
Family care for preterm babies in the hospital
This trial tests whether a program that brings parents into the daily care of their preterm or low-birth-weight baby can help the baby recover faster and go home sooner. If you can spend up to 8 hours a day at the hospital, this study may be a good fit.
Mek'ele, TigrayAges Any age - NCT07296003Recruiting
Motor development study in preterm and full-term babies
This study looks at how babies born early or on time develop their motor skills. Researchers will watch videos of your baby's early movements and then ask you to fill out a questionnaire about their development when they are 18 to 36 months old.
Pardubice, CzechiaAges Up to 3 years - NCT06462638Recruiting
Contact and relationship in the NICU for preterm babies
This study looks at how contact and relationship-building between parents and their babies in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) can help. It is for babies born a bit early (33–36 weeks) who are now stable, and for their parents under 50.
MessinaAges 18–50 - NCT06781476Recruiting
Urine markers in very premature babies
This study will collect urine from very premature or very low birth weight babies to look for patterns in natural chemicals (biomarkers). The goal is to find early clues about their health that could lead to better care.
Bologna, BolognaAges Any age - NCT06857539Recruiting
Assessing thinking and movement in high-risk infants
This study looks at how high-risk infants (especially those born early or with brain concerns) develop their thinking and movement skills over time, comparing them to healthy babies. The goal is to better understand and support their development.
