New lung monitor study for babies in the NICU
Part of Lungs & breathing, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests a new lung monitoring device for newborns in the NICU. It uses gentle sensors placed on the chest to track breathing.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby was born between 26 and 40 weeks of pregnancy (preterm or full-term).
- Your baby is between 1 day and 44 weeks old (corrected age) and weighs 2.2 to 7.7 pounds.
- Your baby is in the NICU and needs breathing support, such as a ventilator, CPAP, or high-flow nasal cannula (at least 2 liters per minute).
- Your baby does not have severe heart or lung birth defects, genetic conditions, skin problems where the sensor would go, or a chest shape that prevents the sensor from lying flat.

This study looks at premature babies to see if we can predict lung injury early. It may help doctors provide better care for babies born early or with low birth weight.
This trial uses lung ultrasound to check if preterm babies under 33 weeks can have their breathing support adjusted safely. It may help reduce the need for a breathing tube.
This study tests a simple breathing machine called the Neovent for newborns with mild to moderate breathing trouble in hospitals with limited resources. It aims to see if the device can help babies breathe easier without needing a breathing tube.
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 trial tests whether using a remote oxygen monitor at home can help prevent ER visits and re-hospitalization for infants leaving the NICU. It aims to see if this simple device can provide extra safety and peace of mind for families.
This study looks at how well a non-invasive device can monitor lung function in preterm babies who have frequent drops in their oxygen levels (hypoxemia). The goal is to help doctors better track and care for these babies.
