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 study tests if a new type of breathing machine (NAVA) works better than the standard machine for babies under 2 with severe bronchiolitis in the pediatric ICU. The goal is to see which machine helps babies breathe easier and avoid needing a breathing tube.
This study compares two ways of delivering breathing support during surgery in children who need a breathing tube. It uses special monitors to see which method works better for the lungs and might help doctors choose the safest approach.
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.
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.
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.
This trial compares two different ways of giving breathing support during laparoscopic hernia repair surgery in young children. It may be a good fit if your child is between 1 and 5 years old, generally healthy, and scheduled for this specific surgery.
