Which inhaler works best for preterm children with lung disease? a study seeks answers

NCT ID NCT06110481

First seen Jul 14, 2026 · Last updated Jul 15, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study looks at how children born preterm with chronic lung disease respond to different inhaled bronchodilators. Participants will have their lung function tested before and after using three types of inhalers: salbutamol, ipratropium bromide, and a combination of fenoterol with ipratropium bromide. The goal is to see if one drug or combination works better overall, and whether individual children respond differently to each treatment.

Active substance
inhaled bronchodilators (salbutamol, ipratropium bromide, and a combination of fenoterol with ipratropium bromide)
What this could lead to
If successful, this study could help doctors choose the most effective bronchodilator or combination for children born preterm with chronic lung disease, improving their breathing treatment.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study with a small number of participants, so results may not apply to all children. Individual responses to the drugs may vary, and the study does not test long-term outcomes.
