RESPIRATORY DISTRESS SYNDROME

This study is testing whether adding an inhaled surfactant medicine to standard breathing support helps premature babies with respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). The treatment is delivered through a special device while babies continue their usual breathing support. Researchers …

This study is testing whether giving L-Carnitine, a natural substance, helps premature babies with severe breathing problems (RDS). Researchers want to see if it helps these fragile newborns gain weight and survive until they can go home. They are enrolling 160 preterm babies to …

This study is testing if using a bedside ultrasound machine can help emergency doctors quickly and correctly figure out what's causing sudden, severe shortness of breath in people over 65. Researchers will compare the usual care to a new approach where doctors use ultrasound on t…

This study aims to better understand how to personalize breathing machine settings for patients with severe lung failure (ARDS). Researchers will observe 40 patients to see how different air pressure levels and body positions (lying on the back vs. the stomach) affect how well ai…

This study is testing a new, non-invasive device that measures lung function in premature infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) while they sleep normally. Researchers want to see if this device can provide useful information about how these babies' lungs are working, whic…

This study aims to understand if two substances in the blood (endocan and copeptin) can help doctors predict how serious breathing problems will be in premature babies. Researchers will measure these levels in 40 preterm newborns with respiratory distress syndrome on their first …

This study aims to understand how changing the air flow rate in a non-invasive breathing machine affects carbon dioxide levels in premature infants. Researchers will observe 45 preterm babies, randomly switching between low and high flow settings while monitoring their breathing.…
