Early prediction of lung problems in premature babies
Part of Genetic & congenital, Lungs & breathing, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at medical information from premature babies to find early signs of a lung condition called bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), which can affect breathing. The goal is to help doctors predict and manage this condition better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Born before 32 weeks of pregnancy or weighed less than 1,500 grams at birth
- Cared for in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) at Konya City Hospital
- Complete medical records available
- No major birth defects
- Enough follow-up data to know if the baby developed BPD

This study uses ultrasound images of the lungs to see if doctors can predict which very premature babies will develop bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD)—a chronic lung condition common in extremely premature infants. The goal is to identify at-risk babies early so they can receive targeted treatment.
This study looks at whether lung ultrasound scores can better predict a common breathing problem in premature babies (bronchopulmonary dysplasia) compared to standard clinical tools. It may help identify early which babies need extra breathing support.
This study looks at very early signs of a lung problem called bronchopulmonary dysplasia in babies born before 26 weeks of pregnancy. The goal is to find better ways to predict and maybe prevent this condition.
This study looks at the natural bacteria and germs in a premature baby's airways to see if they can help predict whether the baby will develop a lung problem called bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). The goal is to find early clues that help doctors take better care of these babies.
This trial studies a breath test to predict lung disease in very premature babies. It could help doctors start treatment earlier to prevent serious breathing problems.
This study looks at babies born very early who have severe lung disease (grade 3 BPD) and still need a breathing machine. Researchers will use tests to understand their lung problems better, which may help guide their care.
