First seen Feb 20, 2026 · Last updated Apr 29, 2026 · Updated 8 times
Summary
This study tests whether adding the drug sildenafil to standard cooling treatment can help prevent brain damage in full-term newborns who suffered oxygen loss at birth. About 24 babies will receive IV sildenafil while being cooled, and researchers will measure how the drug behaves in their bodies. The goal is to prepare for a larger trial that could show if this combination improves survival without brain injury.
