Tiny lungs, big questions: can we tell which preemies benefit from water pills?
NCT ID NCT05898022
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at a new method to find out if diuretics (water pills) help individual premature babies with a chronic lung condition called bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). Researchers enrolled 19 very premature infants and used a special 'N-of-1' approach, where each baby was switched between the drug and a placebo to see if they truly responded. The goal was to gather information to design a larger study, not to prove the drug works long-term.
