All recruiting trials (8)

• LISA versus endotracheal surfactant distribution in preterm babies

  This pilot trial tests whether giving surfactant through a thin catheter (LISA) or through a breathing tube leads to more even surfactant spread in preterm infants with respiratory distress.

  Recruiting Hamad General Hospital · Doha · NCT07514481

• Lung ultrasound score to guide surfactant timing in preterm newborns

  This study tests whether using a lung ultrasound score can speed up diagnosing severe RDS and getting surfactant to moderately and late-preterm babies in the NICU.

  Recruiting Hackensack Meridian Health · Hackensack, New Jersey · NCT07442669

• Predicting which newborns in a lower-level NICU will need extended breathing support

  This project will test whether analyzing a newborn's stomach fluid right after birth can help predict which babies born at 32+ weeks and attended by the neonatal resuscitation team will need breathing support for more than six hours.

  Recruiting Mayo Clinic · Rochester, Minnesota · NCT07344714

• Optimising breathing support at extubation for very preterm infants

  This trial will try starting nasal CPAP before removing the breathing tube versus starting it after extubation to see if that reduces oxygen drops in very preterm infants.

  Recruiting at 3 sites Murdoch Childrens Research Institute · Melbourne, Victoria and 2 other locations · NCT07251790

• Evaluating lung ultrasound after surfactant treatments in preterm babies

  This study tests how different ways of giving surfactant treatment affect lung health in preterm babies with breathing problems.

  Recruiting Konya City Hospital · Konya, Karatay · NCT06880016

• Using ultrasound to guide surfactant therapy for preterm infants with breathing difficulties

  This study is testing if using ultrasound to help give surfactant treatment can improve breathing for preterm infants with respiratory problems compared to the usual methods.

  Recruiting Connecticut Children's Medical Center · Hartford, Connecticut · NCT06446453

• Minimally invasive surfactant treatment for preterm infants

  This study is testing if giving a special lung treatment right after birth using a gentle method can help very premature babies breathe better compared to waiting until they need extra oxygen.

  Recruiting Phase 4 Endeavor Health · Evanston, Illinois · NCT06007547

• European database and biobank for childhood interstitial lung diseases

  This study is creating a database and biobank to collect information and samples from children with interstitial lung diseases across Europe to improve their treatment and understanding of these conditions.
