NCT ID NCT07216053

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at whether a lung ultrasound done shortly after birth can predict which late preterm babies (born 34–36 weeks) will have breathing problems in the first two days of life. Researchers will compare three different ultrasound scoring methods. The goal is to help doctors decide which babies need extra breathing support, especially in hospitals without advanced newborn intensive care units.
