Face Mask vs Laryngeal Mask for Newborn Breathing Help
Part of Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This trial compares using a face mask versus a laryngeal mask to help newborn babies breathe right after birth. It is only for healthcare workers (doctors, nurses, midwives) at the Neonatal Unit and Delivery Room of Fondazione Policlinico Gemelli Hospital in Rome.

This study compares two different face mask shapes used to help newborns breathe before a breathing tube is placed. Researchers want to see which mask shape works better and is easier for doctors to use.
This study tests whether delivering breathing support through a soft face mask (nasal non-invasive ventilation) can help premature babies who are having trouble breathing. Doctors will also use ultrasound to monitor their lungs.
This trial tests two ways to help newborns who are not breathing well right after birth. One method gives a sustained breath followed by chest compressions, and the other uses a 3:1 ratio of breaths to compressions. The goal is to find out which works best to get babies breathing on their own.
This study tests a supraglottic airway device (a tube that sits above the voice box) versus a face mask for helping premature babies breathe right after birth. It may help doctors choose the best way to support your baby's first breaths.
This study compares two ways of giving oxygen and breathing support to newborns in the NICU. It may help find which device works best for very small babies who still need significant oxygen.
This trial tests whether custom 3D-printed nasal masks work better for premature babies who need non-invasive breathing support. The masks are made to fit each baby's face, which might be more comfortable and effective.
