Bubble CPAP for Preterm Babies with Breathing Problems
Part of Genetic & congenital, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests a special breathing support called bubble CPAP, given right after birth in the delivery room, to help preterm babies (born before 34 weeks) who are having trouble breathing. It aims to see if starting this treatment early can improve their breathing and health.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby must be born before 34 weeks of pregnancy.
- Your baby must have trouble breathing soon after birth.
- Your baby cannot have a major birth defect like cleft lip, cleft palate, or a hole in the diaphragm.
- Your baby must not need a breathing tube placed right after delivery.

This trial tests different ways to help very preterm babies when they are first taken off a breathing machine and switched to CPAP. It aims to find the safest and most effective breathing support to help them breathe on their own.
This trial is testing a different way of giving breaths on a breathing machine to very premature babies. It aims to see which speed of lung inflation is gentler and helps babies' lungs work better. If your baby is on a special breathing machine that responds to their own breathing, this trial may help improve their breathing support.
This trial tests a breathing support method called CPAP for premature babies with breathing problems in Africa. It may help your baby get better oxygen and avoid more invasive treatments.
This study looks at how different levels of CPAP (a breathing machine that helps keep the lungs open) affect oxygen delivery and lung expansion in preterm babies. It may help doctors understand the best settings for infants who need breathing support.
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 study looks at whether a careful CPAP breathing support plan helps very premature babies breathe better. It may be an option for babies who are stable on low oxygen settings and have few breathing pauses.
