Recruiting studies
- NCT07251790Recruiting
Better breathing support for very preterm babies
This trial tests different ways to help very preterm babies when they are first taken off a breathing machine and switched to CPAP. It aims to find the safest and most effective breathing support to help them breathe on their own.
Melbourne, VictoriaAges birth+ - NCT07550218Recruiting
Surfactant Delivery Methods for Premature Babies with Breathing Problems
This study looks at different ways doctors give a life-saving medication called surfactant to premature babies who are struggling to breathe. Researchers want to understand which delivery methods work best and help improve care.
GothenburgAges Any age - NCT07442669Recruiting
Lung ultrasound for surfactant decision in premature babies
This trial uses a lung ultrasound score, a type of ultrasound, to decide when to give surfactant (a medicine that helps lungs work) to premature babies born between 27 and 35 weeks of pregnancy. It aims to reduce the need for more breathing support and avoid side effects.
Hackensack, New JerseyAges 6 months–8 months - NCT06776783RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a new surfactant for breathing problems in premature babies
This study tests a new medicine called APC-0101, a type of surfactant, for premature babies with breathing problems (respiratory distress syndrome). It may help their lungs work better and reduce the need for more breathing support.
Little Rock, ArkansasAges 1 hour–1 day - NCT06642285Recruiting
Preventing nasal injuries in preterm babies on breathing support
This study tests if using special care steps can prevent nose sores in preterm babies who need breathing support through a mask or nasal prongs. It may help protect your baby's delicate nose from injury.
Kafr ash Shaykh, Kafr el-Sheikh GovernorateAges 7 months–9 months - NCT05609877Recruiting
Testing LISA breathing treatment for very preterm newborns
This trial is studying whether giving a lung “surfactant” medicine through a thin tube (called LISA) helps very premature babies with breathing problems. It aims to see if this approach improves care for babies born around 24 to 30 weeks gestation who still need oxygen support.
AalborgAges 6 months–7 months - NCT03825835Recruiting
Different oxygen levels at birth for very preterm babies
This trial studies whether giving 30% versus 60% oxygen during early resuscitation (breathing support) affects brain and nerve development in very low birthweight, very preterm infants. If you/your baby fits the birth and care timing requirements, the goal is to find an oxygen approach that supports better long-term outcomes.
Calgary, AlbertaAges birth–10 minutes - NCT04270045Recruiting
Breathing test in babies with bronchopulmonary dysplasia
This trial studies a breathing measurement test (forced oscillometry) in babies who were born early and have bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), a long-term lung condition. It may help doctors better understand how babies’ lungs are working and guide future care.
Kansas City, MissouriAges Any age - NCT06280872Recruiting
Cord clamping study for moderate and late preterm babies
This trial studies a different way of clamping the umbilical cord after birth to see if it helps moderately preterm babies (born between 32 and 37 weeks). It may improve their health right after delivery.
BrusselsAges 7 months–8 months - NCT06295484Recruiting
Comparing two breathing support methods for very small babies
This study compares two types of breathing support (nasal CPAP and NIPPV) for very low birth weight preterm infants to see which one works better. The goal is to find the best way to help these babies breathe more easily.
Toronto, OntarioAges 1 day–8 months - NCT06554522RecruitingPhase 4
Testing CPAP for Premature Babies with Breathing Problems
This trial tests a breathing support method called CPAP for premature babies with breathing problems in Africa. It may help your baby get better oxygen and avoid more invasive treatments.
BanguiAges 1 hour–1 day - NCT06557551Recruiting
Surfactant for preterm babies born before 28 weeks
This trial tests giving surfactant through a thin tube into the windpipe right after birth for babies born before 28 weeks. It aims to help their lungs work better and reduce breathing problems.
Dublin, None SelectedAges Up to 30 minutes - NCT06622902Recruiting
How flow changes affect CO2 in preemies on high-flow breathing support
This study watches how changing the flow of air through a breathing device (high-flow nasal cannula) affects carbon dioxide levels in preemies. It helps doctors learn the safest way to adjust breathing support for fragile infants.
HaifaAges Any age - 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 - NCT07154134Recruiting
Blood markers in preterm babies with breathing problems
This study looks at two substances in the blood (endocan and copeptin) to see if they can help doctors understand breathing problems in premature babies. It may lead to better ways to care for these infants.
Tanta, El-GharbiaAges 6 months–8 months - NCT07344714Recruiting
Predicting breathing help needs for newborns in NICUs
This study looks at newborns in a lower-level NICU to see which ones will need extra breathing support. The goal is to better predict which babies can be kept at their current hospital instead of being moved.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 7 months–9 months - 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 - 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 - 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 - NCT05942924Recruiting
NEU-STIM for breathing support in very premature newborns
This trial studies whether NEU-STIM can help support breathing and oxygen levels in babies born very early. If your baby is born before 32 weeks, the study may include them after you provide consent.
GrazAges Up to 7 months - NCT05236023Recruiting
Care for mothers and newborns to reduce separation in NICU
This trial tests a “family-centered” approach that aims to keep mothers closely involved with their babies in intensive newborn care, rather than separating them. It may help families by supporting safer, more continuous mother–baby bonding during treatment.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for respiratory distress syndrome in premature infant?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 21 recruiting respiratory distress syndrome in premature infant 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 respiratory distress syndrome in premature infant 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 respiratory distress syndrome in premature infant 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.
