Filter by:Objective: Mid-trimester preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM), defined as rupture of fetal mem-branes prior to 28 weeks' gestation (WG), complicates approximately 0.4-0.7% of all pregnancies and associated with very high neonatal mortality and morbidity. Antibiotics have limited success to prevent bacteremia, chorioamnionitis and fetal inflammation because of reduced placental transport. The repetitive amnioinfusion doesn't work because of immediately fluid lost after the intervention). The continuous amnioinfusion with Amnion Flush Solution through the perinatal port system in patients with classic PPROM prolonged the PPROM-to-delivery interval to 49 days in average by flush out of bacteria and inflammatory components from the amniotic cavity. Aim: This multicenter trial tests the effect of continuous amnioinfusion on the neonatal survival without major morbidities, like severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia, intraventricular hemorrhage, cystic periventricular leukomalacia and necrotizing enterocolitis. Design: randomized multicenter controlled trial; two-arm parallel design. Control group: 34 PPROM patients between 22/0 (20/0) -26/0 WG treating with antibiotics and corticosteroids in according to DGGG guide-lines. In interventional group (n=34) the standard PPROM therapy will be complemented by "Amnion -Flush" method with the amnioinfusion of artificial amniotic fluid (Amnion Flush Solution, Serumwerk AG, Germany, 2400 ml/d). Subjects: Patients with classic PPROM between 22/0-26/0 WG. Expected outcome:The investigators expect significant reduction of neonatal mortality and morbidity in the "Amnion-Flush" group.
The purpose of this study is to determine if an investigational drug, AT-100, can reduce the occurrence of Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia (BPD) in babies born premature, as compared to babies born premature who receive an air-sham alone.
For the infant participating the study, ventilator settings and respiratory variables will be recorded every day and exported to a specific computer using the Servo Record Viewer version 1.0 (Maquet Critical Care AB, Getinge, Gothenburg, Sweden). Collected data gives the value for peak inspiratory pressure (PIP), expiratory tidal volume (Vt), peak Edi, minimum Edi, measured respiratory rate (RR), neural respiratory rate (nRR) and percentage of backup breaths for each minute. All the ventilator data will be inspected and compared with the event logs recorded automatically from the ventilator, which includes all the alarm notification, mode and setting changes, cables connection and disconnection data. Data during disconnection of the Edi cable, malfunction or dislocation of Edi catheter will be excluded from the analysis. The mean values during each day will be computed for each ventilatory variables. If there is a change in the ventilatory setting parameters, we will choose the one which was applied for longer duration in the 24-hour time period. The following clinical characteristics will be collected from medical records: gestational age at birth, birth weight, gender, the time and amount of feeding, medication during the study days, desaturation events, bradycardia events, suction time and methods.
The primary objective of this study is to provide expanded access of S-nitrosylation therapy for the treatment of bronchopulmonary dysplasia
This study is an open-label, phase 1, sequential dose escalation trial seeking to establish preliminary tolerability, efficacy, and pharmacokinetic data for up to 4 different doses of inhaled tobramycin administered to very preterm infants with BPD who are receiving invasive mechanical ventilation and have a pathogenic Gram-negative organism detected by tracheal aspirate culture.
hypothesis : 1. The incident of dysplasia bronchopulmonary and/or death in 24-32 weekers babies on assist-control volume guarantee ventilation are lower in lung recruitment maneuver (LRM) group compare to control. 2. The serum levels of surfactant protein-D in 24-32 weekers babies on assist-control volume guarantee ventilation are lower in lung recruitment maneuver (LRM) group compare to control. 3. The serum concentration of CD-31+ and CD-42b- in 24-32 weekers babies on assist-control volume guarantee ventilation are lower in lung recruitment maneuver (LRM) group compare to control. 4. The right and left cardiac output in 24-32 weekers babies on assist-control volume guarantee mode are more higher in lung recruitment maneuver (LRM) group, than group that did not get LRM 5. The incident Patent Ductus Arteriosus in 24-32 weekers babies on assist-control volume guarantee ventilation are lower in lung recruitment maneuver (LRM) group compare to control. 6. The difference tc-pCO2 - PaCO2 , tcO2 index , and strong ion difference (SID) in 24-32 weekers babies on assist-control volume guarantee ventilation are lower in lung recruitment maneuver (LRM) group compare to control.
This is a Phase 3, randomized, masked, active-controlled, multicenter trial designed to determine whether early intratracheal administration of a combination of budesonide with surfactant, as compared to surfactant alone, will reduce the incidence of physiologic bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) or death by 36 weeks' post-menstrual age in extremely preterm infants.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate long-term safety and efficacy outcomes following previously administered short-term exposure to SHP607, as compared to a standard neonatal care group.
Pediatric idiopathic pulmonary hypertension has significant morbidity and mortality. An ever expanding body of knowledge indicates the important contribution of inflammation to pathogenesis and successful treatment with glucocorticoids. Over the last several years the investigators have utilized steroids in patients with severe pulmonary hypertension as part of a treatment regimen. These basic science studies possibly identifies a biochemical etiology for the development of disease and may also be impacted by the administration of steroids. Additionally, there is a commercially available assay which tests for all of the above molecules.
The chances of survival in premature babies, especially in babies born under 28 weeks, have increased in recent years, and comorbidities also increase. Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), one of the premature problems, is one of them. After a while, babies with heavy BPD are discharged with the support of a home-type mechanical ventilator by opening a tracheostomy. Tracheostomy procedure is performed by specialist doctors of otolaryngology under general anesthesia in the operating room conditions in newborns. Complications of this procedure such as bleeding, skin necrosis, decanulation, trachea laceration and infection in the early period can be seen. In the long term, in addition to complications such as formation of tracheal granulation tissue, ulceration, laceration due to the procedure, babies with tracheostomy may develop nutrition and speech problems and neurodevelopmental problems. In the literature, there is no comprehensive clinical follow-up study involving early and late clinical results related to newborns undergoing tracheostomy. In this study, early and late follow-up results (indications, anthropometric measurements, mechanical ventilation and oxygen deposition times, complications, tracheostomy closure times, tracheostomy closure times, neurodevelopmental patients in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit of Hacettepe University Ihsan Dogramaci Children's Hospital. results, accompanying other comorbidities, etc.).
