NCT ID NCT06915467
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Jun 22, 2026 · Updated 31 times
Summary
This study tests a new way to give emergency medication to newborns in cardiac arrest. Instead of the standard umbilical vein catheter, doctors will try a direct approach through Wharton's jelly in the umbilical cord. The goal is to see if this method can restore a normal heart rate within 90 seconds. The study will include 26 full-term newborns who need emergency resuscitation in the delivery room.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Umbilical vein catheterization through Wharton's jelly procedure
What this could lead to
If successful, this technique could provide a faster, more reliable way to deliver life-saving medication to newborns in cardiac arrest, potentially improving survival rates.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase study with only 26 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The procedure may not be faster or safer than the standard method.
