Breast milk through the nose for HIE
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests whether giving fresh breast milk through the nose is safe and possible for newborns with HIE (a brain injury from oxygen loss at birth) who are already receiving cooling therapy. It may help protect the brain and reduce injury.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby has moderate to severe HIE (a type of brain injury from lack of oxygen at birth).
- Your baby is getting therapeutic hypothermia (cooling therapy) for 72 hours.
- Your baby was born at 35 weeks of pregnancy or later.
- Your baby is less than 48 hours old.
- You are able and willing to provide fresh breast milk for your baby to receive through the nose.
- Your baby does not have any major birth defects, brain lesions, or need ECMO (a heart-lung machine).

This trial tests whether giving fresh breast milk as nose drops can help newborns with brain injury from lack of oxygen. It aims to see if this simple treatment can improve brain recovery.
This study tests whether a medicine called erythropoietin can help newborns with a brain injury from lack of oxygen (HIE). It is for babies less than 1 month old and aims to see if the treatment improves their recovery.
This Phase 3 study tests whether cooling a newborn’s body can help babies with mild brain injury after a difficult birth. It aims to see if cooling improves brain-related outcomes compared with standard care.
This study uses whole genome sequencing to look at the genes of newborns with HIE (brain injury from lack of oxygen) who are receiving cooling treatment. The goal is to learn more about how genes may affect recovery and outcomes.
This trial tests if citicoline, a brain-protecting supplement, can help newborns with moderate to severe brain injury from lack of oxygen. It is for babies who have not gotten cooling treatment.
This trial studies whether cooling a newborn's body after a difficult birth helps prevent brain damage. Researchers will track babies treated with this cooling therapy and use brain imaging to see how well it works.
