NCT ID: NCT01517828 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Intranasal Midazolam Versus Intranasal Ketamine to Sedate Newborns for Intubation in Delivery Room

Start date: January 2012
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Anesthesia is rarely used to intubate newborns in delivery room because of the very difficulty of accessing veins. The investigators hypothesized that intranasal administration of sedative would be an effective alternative. -Midazolam and Ketamine are two drugs used during neonates' intubation. They are also used intranasally in the absence of venous access-In a pilot study the investigators have demonstrated that sedation with Midazolam was effective in 67% of the patients. Efficiency was defined by a specific pain score: FANS < 4 (Faceless Acute Neonatal Pain Scale) and by an impedancemetric Pain monitor < 0.2 spike/s. The investigators hypothesized that intranasal ketamine would increase procedure effectiveness from 67 to 90%. - Main objective: To compare newborns sedation quality as they are sedated either by intranasal Midazolam or by intranasal Ketamine during intubation in delivery room. - Secondary Objectives: To compare intubation quality, hemodynamic and respiratory tolerance, and neurological outcomeat 2 years within the two groups.

LACTACOL 01 - Impact of Breast Milk on the Neurodevelopment of Preterm Newborns

Start date: October 25, 2011
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The aim of the study is to estimate the impact of the protein content of breastmilk at the end of hospitalization of the preterm newborn, on the neurodevelopment at 2 years old. The investigators expect a difference of at least 5 points of Development Quotient (DQ) when comparing extreme terciles of the protein content of breastmilk at the end of hospitalization.
