Early signs of lung disease in very premature babies
Part of Genetic & congenital, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at very premature babies (born before 26 weeks) to find early signs that might predict a lung condition called bronchopulmonary dysplasia. The goal is to help doctors identify which babies are at risk sooner, so they can provide better care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Born before 26 weeks of pregnancy
- Admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) at the Medical University of Vienna right after birth
- A parent or legal guardian must give written permission before the baby can join

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 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 trial tests whether doing a bedside lung ultrasound can help doctors assess and manage breathing problems in very premature infants. It may help guide care decisions for infants who are struggling to breathe, especially those needing breathing support.
This study helps doctors predict which very premature babies might develop bronchopulmonary dysplasia (a chronic lung condition common in preemies) by analyzing their early medical records. Better early prediction could help doctors plan treatment sooner.
This study is testing whether a simple ultrasound of the lungs done right after birth can help predict a lung problem called bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in very early preterm babies. If successful, this could help doctors identify babies at high risk sooner and provide better care.
This study tests if germs in a premature baby's mouth and lungs can help predict bronchopulmonary dysplasia (a serious lung condition). Researchers will collect spit samples from babies born very early to see if the germs can warn doctors early.
