Custom 3D-printed nasal masks for premature babies on breathing support
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests whether custom 3D-printed nasal masks work better for premature babies who need non-invasive breathing support. The masks are made to fit each baby's face, which might be more comfortable and effective.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby was born premature
- Your baby is less than 30 days old
- Your baby needs non-invasive breathing support (like a mask that helps them breathe without a tube)
- Your baby has been on this breathing support for 3 days or less
- You are willing to sign a consent form for your baby to join the trial

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 study tests whether delivering breathing support through a soft face mask (nasal non-invasive ventilation) can help premature babies who are having trouble breathing. Doctors will also use ultrasound to monitor their lungs.
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 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 study looks at a different way to help very premature babies breathe in the first minutes after birth, which may improve their breathing and reduce lung problems.
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.
