Breath test for early lung disease in premature babies
Part of Genetic & congenital, Infections, Lungs & breathing, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial studies a breath test to predict lung disease in very premature babies. It could help doctors start treatment earlier to prevent serious breathing problems.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby was born before 30 weeks of pregnancy
- Your baby does not have a major birth defect
- Your baby is stable enough to join, as decided by the doctor

This study looks at the natural bacteria and germs in a premature baby's airways to see if they can help predict whether the baby will develop a lung problem called bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). The goal is to find early clues that help doctors take better care of these babies.
This trial tests whether doing a bedside lung ultrasound can help doctors assess and manage breathing problems in very premature infants. It may help guide care decisions for infants who are struggling to breathe, especially those needing breathing support.
This study looks at very early signs of a lung problem called bronchopulmonary dysplasia in babies born before 26 weeks of pregnancy. The goal is to find better ways to predict and maybe prevent this condition.
This study uses ultrasound images of the lungs to see if doctors can predict which very premature babies will develop bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD)—a chronic lung condition common in extremely premature infants. The goal is to identify at-risk babies early so they can receive targeted treatment.
This study looks at whether lung ultrasound scores can better predict a common breathing problem in premature babies (bronchopulmonary dysplasia) compared to standard clinical tools. It may help identify early which babies need extra breathing support.
This study looks at medical information from premature babies to find early signs of a lung condition called bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), which can affect breathing. The goal is to help doctors predict and manage this condition better.
