Comparing two breathing oxygen supports for very small newborns
Part of Genetic & congenital, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study compares two ways of giving oxygen and breathing support to newborns in the NICU. It may help find which device works best for very small babies who still need significant oxygen.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby is in the NICU (newborn intensive care).
- Your baby weighs between 400 and 500 grams.
- Your baby needs more than 30% oxygen to breathe comfortably.
- There is no solid, localized lung infection seen on the baby’s lung scans or X-rays.
- Your baby can safely use the specific device parts that fit over the nose.

This study looks at a different way to help very premature babies breathe in the first minutes after birth, which may improve their breathing and reduce lung problems.
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.
This study compares two scoring methods (Silverman-Andersen and Downes) to see which one better helps doctors decide how to treat breathing problems in newborn babies. It focuses on preterm and full-term babies who need breathing support with a special mask (NIPPV).
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.
This study compares two breathing support methods — high-flow nasal cannula and CPAP — for very premature babies born between 28 and 31 weeks. It aims to find which approach helps them breathe best when they need help right after birth.
This study tests a simple breathing machine called the Neovent for newborns with mild to moderate breathing trouble in hospitals with limited resources. It aims to see if the device can help babies breathe easier without needing a breathing tube.
