Ventilator Study for Newborns in Intensive Care
Part of Brain & nervous system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at how ventilators (breathing machines) work best for newborns in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Researchers want to understand ventilator settings in babies whose brain pressure and heart function are stable.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your baby must be on a ventilator (not breathing on their own)
- Your baby's brain pressure must be stable and not changing
- Your baby's heart function and blood pressure must be stable
- Your baby cannot be on a mode that lets them trigger their own breaths
- You must be willing to stay in the study and can withdraw consent at any time

This study checks how a type of breathing machine support affects brain health in very premature infants. It may help doctors choose safer breathing support strategies to protect the brain.
This study tests a new way of setting the ventilator for preterm babies born before 34 weeks who are still on a breathing machine. It aims to improve lung healing and heart function by finding the best pressure settings. The results could help your baby breathe more comfortably.
This study is testing a way to reduce the chance of a certain breathing problem (called NAV) in babies who need a breathing machine in the NICU. If your baby has been on the machine for two days or more, they may be able to join.
This study looks at how different settings on the breathing machine (ventilator) are used for critically ill adults in the ICU. It may help doctors improve care for people who need 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 tests a new type of mask and breathing machine for patients in the ICU who need non-invasive breathing support (NIV). It looks at whether this method helps you breathe better. You may be eligible if you are stable, 18 or older, and can use a mask that fits under your nose.
