Compare two breathing machines for newborns with diaphragmatic hernia
Part of Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This study compares two types of ventilator support for newborns with congenital diaphragmatic hernia. The goal is to see which breathing approach works better and is safer when started very early after birth.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby must be cared for in the NICU at the University of Utah or Primary Children’s Hospital within 24 hours of birth
- Your baby needs a breathing machine (mechanical ventilation)
- Your baby must have an arterial line placed (in the umbilical area or a peripheral artery)
- You must be able to sign consent for your baby to join the study
- Your baby must be 24 hours old or younger when joining

This trial tests whether giving a gas called inhaled nitric oxide helps newborns with a congenital diaphragmatic hernia breathe better and improve lung blood pressure. It's a type of treatment often used to help with lung problems in babies.
This study compares two gentle ways of helping premature babies breathe (using a mask or small tubes in the nose) to see which works better for babies with breathing problems. It aims to find the best way to support babies born early who need help taking their first breaths.
This study tests a specific type of breathing machine (ventilator) that adjusts air pressure to help newborns with persistent pulmonary hypertension breathe better. It aims to see if this method improves oxygen levels and outcomes for babies needing mechanical ventilation in their first week of life.
This study compares two types of noninvasive breathing support (NHFOV and NIMV) used after a premature baby's breathing tube is removed. The goal is to see which method helps babies breathe more smoothly after extubation.
This study looks at a new way to help very premature babies who need breathing support right after birth. The goal is to find a gentler method that may reduce lung damage and improve breathing outcomes.
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.
