Filter by:An Exploratory Randomized double-arm controlled trial to evaluate the immunomodulatory effect of low versus high dose of Alveofact with or without Budesonide.
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether lung ultrasound can predict extubation success in neonates with respiratory distress. Participants will undergo a lung ultrasound pre- and post-extubation.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare dexamethasone in late preterm deliveries. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does antenatal dexamethasone reduce the need for respiratory support in late preterm infants? Does antenatal dexamethasone reduce neonatal morbidities and mortality? Does antenatal dexamethasone reduce admission to Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and length of hospital stay? Participants will be allocated into 2 groups: intervention with dexamethasone IM and control (standard care). Investigators will compare these two groups to see if antenatal dexamethasone reduces the need for respiratory support in late preterm infants, neonatal morbidities and mortality, admission to NICU and length of hospital stay.
Aims of the Research Primary: 1. Measure the levels of stress biomarkers in full and preterm neonates with normal and complicated pregnancies and to study the influence of delivery mode on their cord blood concentrations. 2. Test the association between LPCAT1 genetic polymorphism and the levels of these biomarkers in neonates suffering from RDS. 3. Study the relation between LPCAT1 genetic polymorphism and the risk/severity of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome. Secondary: 1) Help understanding the possible etiology and pathogenesis of neonatal RDS. 2) Help the possibility of early detection, diagnosis and management. 3) Help to decrease mortality and morbidity in selective cases. 4) Understand the individual variability in the susceptibility to development of pulmonary pathologies.
In preterm infants with neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (NRDS), exogenous pulmonary surfactant(PS) replacement therapy is one of the most important therapeutic breakthrough to reduce neonatal mortality. Nowadays, PS is commonly used in newborn infants with respiratory distress, but the incidences of bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD) and/or death are inconsistent. The result indicates that not all preterm infants with respiratory distress can be beneficial from PS. In 2017, the international neonatal ARDS (NARDS) collaborative group provides the first consensus definition for NARDS. And whether or not PS being beneficial for preterm infants with NARDS remains unknown.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and impact of intravenous ketamine or sublingual 30% glucose as sedation drugs used in preterm premature babies during the LISA procedure. The second goal is to compare the frequency of complications during LISA with both premedication regimens.
Single-center, randomised controlled, cross-over clinical trial in preterm infants born at gestational age below 34+1/7 weeks receiving supplemental oxygen and respiratory support (continous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or non-invasive ventilation (NIV) or invasive ventilation (IV)). Routine manual control (RMC) of the fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) will be tested against RMC supported by automatic control (SPOC) with "old"-algorithm and RMC supported by CLAC with "new"-algorithm. The first primary hypothesis is, that the use of the "new" algorithm results in more time within arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2) target range compared to RMC only. The a-priori subordinate hypothesis is, that the new algorithm results in more time within SpO2 target range compared to SPOCold. The second primary hypothesis is, that the use of 2 seconds averaging time of the SpO2 Signal results in more time within arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2) target range compared to the use of 8 seconds averaging interval of the SpO2 signal.
The traditional concept believes that the etiology of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) is immature development of lung,especially the surfactant synthesis system,and RDS is still one of the major causes of mortality and morbidity in newborns, especially premature infants.In recent years, using pulmonary surfactant replacement therapy (PS treatment) in the treatment of respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) is a major breakthrough in neonatal medicine.Combined with clinical practice and experience,and through Meta analysis of related randomized controlled trials (RCTs),it confirms that natural surfactant treatment can reduce mortality,the incidence of pulmonary air leaks (pneumothorax and interstitial lung emphysema),and the incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) or 28-day-old mortality.For RDS in preterm infants whose gestation is <35 weeks ,surfactant replacement therapy is also more effective than in nearly term and full term infants.Therefore, in the analysis of cases of different gestational age groups,the investigators should focus on the study of premature infants cases.Due to less relevant research for using PS treatment to cure newborn RDS in high altitude area,this retrospective study conducts statistics and analysis of recently three-year cases in some hospital of high altitude area,to explore the treatment effect of the high altitude region and the impact of altitude on the treatment.
Hyaline membrane disease, now commonly called respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), and feeding intolerance, which can lead to necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), are two key morbidities found in premature neonates which resulted in high mortality rate in Indonesia. Cochrane meta-analysis proved that antenatal steroid therapy can reduce the morbidity and mortality rate of premature neonates. But there is still different outcomes and severity of disease in preterm newborn receiving the same dose of antenatal steroid therapy. This raises questions whether there are other factors influencing the development and maturity of lung and gut in preterm newborn, aside from steroid therapy. Vitamin A, D and zinc are already known for their function in fetal lung and gut development. To our best of knowledge, no study has evaluated the effect of these vitamins levels on HMD and feeding intolerance in premature neonates. Therefore, the aim of this study want to evaluate the effect of antenatal steroid therapy versus co-administered β-carotene, vitamin D3, zinc and antenatal steroid therapy on the presence and severity of HMD and feeding intolerance in premature neonates.
Comparing the cardio-respiratory adaptation and differences to non invasive ventilation techniques, nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) non synchronized vs synchronized (SNIPPV) in preterm newborns (gestational age at birth < 32 weeks) at their first approach to non invasive ventilation as first intention (soon after birth) or after extubation.
