Oxygen at birth for late-preterm infants
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial tests whether giving a specific oxygen concentration at birth helps late-preterm babies who need breathing support. It aims to find the best oxygen level to improve outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby is born between 32 weeks and 35 weeks 6 days of pregnancy.
- Your baby needs help breathing right after birth (respiratory support).
- You and your doctor have decided to provide full resuscitation (no comfort care only).
- Your baby does not have any known major birth defects or chromosomal abnormalities.
- Your baby is born at one of the study hospitals (not transferred after birth).

This study looks at how well oxygen is being used by the body in newborns who are having breathing problems, from birth through the first hours of life. It also studies whether infection plays a role, which may help doctors better understand and treat newborn breathing trouble.
This trial studies whether giving 30% versus 60% oxygen during early resuscitation (breathing support) affects brain and nerve development in very low birthweight, very preterm infants. If you/your baby fits the birth and care timing requirements, the goal is to find an oxygen approach that supports better long-term outcomes.
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 trial tests a device that automatically adjusts oxygen levels for premature babies who need help breathing through tubes or masks in their nose. The goal is to keep oxygen levels in a safer, more stable range without needing staff to manually adjust it constantly.
This trial studies whether giving extra oxygen to the pregnant person during labor helps the baby during “intrauterine resuscitation,” when monitoring suggests the baby needs support. It may help babies recover better while still in the womb, especially during continuous fetal monitoring.
This study looks at the best oxygen saturation targets and resuscitation approach for very premature babies right after birth. It may help clinicians guide breathing support more safely in the first minutes of life.
