Light therapy device study for newborns with severe brain bleeding
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial tests a light therapy device in newborns who had a severe form of brain bleeding (intraventricular hemorrhage grade 3 or 4) within the first month of life. The goal is to see if this non-invasive treatment may help improve recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby is less than 1 month old.
- Your baby has been diagnosed with intraventricular hemorrhage grade 3 or 4.

This study looks at the outcomes of brain bleeding (intraventricular hemorrhage) in very premature babies. It aims to understand how these babies do and what helps them, which may lead to better care.
This trial studies better ways to prevent, catch early, and treat brain bleeds in premature babies. It focuses on babies who already have a brain bleed that causes fluid buildup (hydrocephalus) but haven't received any drainage treatment yet.
This Phase 1 trial studies whether giving erythropoietin (EPO) and melatonin is safe in very preterm infants who have bleeding in the brain (intraventricular hemorrhage) or significant nearby brain injury. It aims to see if these medicines can be given safely during the early days after birth.
This study uses a special light-based monitor (NIRS) to track blood flow in the brain of premature infants. It compares babies in different conditions related to bleeding, fluid buildup, or other brain fluid changes to help doctors understand what monitoring can show.
This study looks at using two noninvasive tools on very preterm newborns to better predict whether an intraventricular hemorrhage (bleeding in the brain’s fluid spaces) may happen. If successful, it could help doctors spot risk earlier and monitor or treat babies sooner.
This trial tests a treatment called neuroendoscopic lavage—a way to wash out a severe brain bleed in newborns using a tiny camera. It may help prevent fluid buildup and brain damage. Doctors want to see if it works better than regular care for babies under one month old with this condition.
