Test breathing support and brain health in premature babies
Part of Brain & nervous system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study checks how a type of breathing machine support affects brain health in very premature infants. It may help doctors choose safer breathing support strategies to protect the brain.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby was born very early (between 22 weeks 0 days and 31 weeks 6 days).
- Your baby weighs more than 500 grams at the time consent is discussed.
- Your baby is at least 3 days old when the study team screens them.
- For at least 24 hours before joining, the baby’s breathing and blood pressure must be fairly stable on the breathing support, with no active infection.
- The baby must not have a severe bleeding in the brain (grade 3 or 4).

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 trial tests a new non-invasive breathing support that adjusts to each baby's own breathing pattern. It aims to help very premature infants breathe more comfortably and avoid more invasive ventilation.
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.
This Phase 3 study tests ways to protect brain health in newborns who are very premature or recently born and need a breathing machine through a tube. It may help reduce the risk of brain injury while they receive intensive care.
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 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.
