Integrated care model for newborns with critical heart disease
Part of Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests a coordinated treatment plan for newborns with critical congenital heart disease, starting before birth and continuing after delivery. It aims to improve outcomes for babies who need two-ventricle repair surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby is a full-term newborn (born between 37 and 40 weeks) and less than 28 days old
- Or your baby is a premature infant (born between 32 and 37 weeks) but still less than 28 days old when considering their due date
- Your baby weighs more than 1.5 kilograms (about 3.3 pounds) at birth
- Your baby's heart condition was found during an ultrasound between 22 and 26 weeks of pregnancy
- Your baby's heart problem can be fixed with a two-ventricle repair (not just a temporary fix or single-ventricle surgery)
- Your baby does not have any known genetic or chromosomal abnormalities or other serious health problems

This trial looks at newborns with Tetralogy of Fallot, a heart condition present at birth. It aims to study the best way to treat these babies in the first month of life.
This study records newborn heart measurements (using medical imaging) to compare babies with certain congenital heart defects to healthy-term babies. The goal is to see how well one test matches another, which may help doctors better understand heart conditions in newborns.
This trial focuses on improving care for babies born with certain complex heart conditions where only one pumping chamber works. It is meant for babies (including unborn babies) who are planned to have the Norwood procedure, which is a common early surgery.
This trial tests a combined heart and brain rehabilitation program for young people with moderate to complex congenital heart disease. The goal is to improve both heart health and thinking skills, such as memory and attention.
This trial studies whether doing a procedure before birth to open a baby’s aortic valve improves outcomes. It compares this approach in a specific group of pregnancies with severe heart flow problems seen on ultrasound.
This trial is testing a way to help doctors assess babies and children with congenital heart disease and heart failure before placing a temporary heart support pump. It may help improve planning by using heart scans to decide who needs support and how to prepare.
