Testing oxygen saturation targets during newborn resuscitation
Part of Genetic & congenital, Lungs & breathing, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at the best oxygen saturation targets and resuscitation approach for very premature babies right after birth. It may help clinicians guide breathing support more safely in the first minutes of life.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be a newborn born between 22 and 30 weeks of pregnancy (very premature)
- Have no known (prenatal) serious heart defect that causes blue color (cyanotic congenital heart disease)
- Have no known (prenatal) congenital diaphragmatic hernia (a hole in the diaphragm)
- Be eligible for breathing support/resuscitation (parents are not requesting no resuscitation)
- A pulse oximeter (oxygen sensor) can be used and measure preductal oxygen levels within 3 minutes of being placed on your baby

This study tests whether changing oxygen targets in preterm infants with high blood pressure in the lungs (pulmonary hypertension) helps their heart and lungs work better. It may help doctors find the best oxygen levels for these babies.
This study tests a new way of setting the ventilator for preterm babies born before 34 weeks who are still on a breathing machine. It aims to improve lung healing and heart function by finding the best pressure settings. The results could help your baby breathe more comfortably.
This study compares two different starting oxygen levels for babies born a bit early (32-35 weeks) who need breathing help at birth. The goal is to find the safest oxygen level to start with to help their lungs.
This study looks at how different levels of CPAP (a breathing machine that helps keep the lungs open) affect oxygen delivery and lung expansion in preterm babies. It may help doctors understand the best settings for infants who need breathing support.
This study checks how well a new Owlet sensor measures oxygen levels in newborns. It is for babies who already have an arterial line in place for routine blood tests.
This study looks at whether automatically adjusting oxygen levels for premature babies, compared with manual control, affects lung health when they reach early childhood. It involves simple breathing tests to see how their lungs are working.
