Improving breathing tube placement safety in NICU newborns
Part of Ear, nose & throat clinical trials.
This trial focuses on newborns in the NICU who need a breathing tube placed through the mouth or airway. It aims to improve the success and safety of the first intubation while reducing risks.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a newborn (infant) in the NICU
- A healthcare team plans to place your first breathing tube (tracheal intubation)
- The breathing tube must be newly placed for this procedure
- This trial is not for situations where the tube is being exchanged for a different one

This trial tests using a smart checklist to help doctors place breathing tubes more safely in children in the intensive care unit (ICU). It may help improve care for any child who needs this procedure.
This trial looks at ways to improve the safety and quality of emergency breathing tube placement in pediatric critical care and emergency settings. It may help reduce complications and improve how clinicians do these urgent procedures.
This trial studies care during placing a breathing tube (tracheal intubation) in children having general anesthesia. It may help improve safety and outcomes around the breathing tube process.
This study tests a different way to secure the breathing tube in preterm babies on a ventilator. It may help reduce skin problems or unplanned tube removal in the NICU.
This study compares two ways of giving breathing support through the nose to preterm babies who are having trouble breathing. One method uses a small tube placed in both nostrils (nasal cannula), and the other uses a single tube in one nostril (single nasal prong). The goal is to see which works better and is more comfortable for the baby.
This study is testing a way to reduce the chance of a certain breathing problem (called NAV) in babies who need a breathing machine in the NICU. If your baby has been on the machine for two days or more, they may be able to join.
