Fetal lung study using ultrasound
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study uses a special ultrasound to look at your baby's lung development in the last weeks of pregnancy. It may help doctors learn more about how healthy lungs grow before birth.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at whether a lung ultrasound (a safe, painless scan) can help predict how well a newborn will recover from breathing problems that start right after birth. It may help doctors decide on the best care more quickly.
This study uses a special lung ultrasound to look at how well a baby's lungs are working. It is for babies in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) who need help breathing. The goal is to see if the ultrasound can give doctors useful information.
This trial uses a lung ultrasound (a safe, painless scan) right after birth to help doctors understand the lungs of very premature babies (born before 26 weeks). It aims to see if this early scan can guide better breathing support.
This study uses lung ultrasound to see if it can predict which late preterm babies (born 34–36 weeks) might have trouble breathing after birth. The goal is to find these babies early so they can get the right care sooner.
This study tests whether using lung ultrasound pictures can help doctors decide how to support breathing in infants who need extra help, including surfactant therapy. If successful, ultrasound may reduce the need for X-rays and improve care.
This study uses ultrasound to check how well your baby is growing during pregnancy. It helps doctors understand normal growth patterns so they can better care for you and your baby.
