NCT ID NCT07237139

First seen Nov 19, 2025 · Last updated May 05, 2026 · Updated 20 times

Summary

This study looks at how preterm babies' lungs change volume when they receive synchronized noninvasive breathing support (sNIPPV). Researchers will use a special imaging technique (EIT) to compare different types of breaths and ventilator inflations. The goal is to understand why sNIPPV works better than other methods. About 27 infants born before 30 weeks will take part.
