Steroid study seeks clues to prevent preemie lung disease
NCT ID NCT01854840
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 127 pregnant women who received a steroid called betamethasone to help prevent lung problems in their premature babies. Researchers measured how much of the drug reached the baby and whether it reduced the risk or severity of hyaline membrane disease, a serious breathing condition. The goal was to better understand the link between drug transfer and newborn lung health.
