Active clinical trials for "Respiratory Distress Syndrome, Newborn"

To evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, PD, and clinical activity of Itolizumab in subjects with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) caused by Infectious Pneumonia.

Patients prospectively classified to the hyper-inflammatory ARDS phenotype on the basis of clinical characteristics and a novel POC biomarker assay will have worse clinical outcomes than the hypo-inflammatory phenotype. Study Aim The purpose of this project is to prospectively identify hyper- and hypo-inflammatory phenotypes in patients with ARDS and determine clinical outcomes associated with each phenotype. The primary objective of this study is to assess the clinical outcomes in patients with ARDS according to their prospectively defined inflammatory phenotype determined using a POC assay. Results of group allocation will be blinded to clinical and research staff until database lock. Secondary Objectives The secondary objectives of this study are to: (i) Assess the agreement of the phenotype allocation using the POC assay and the clinical study dataset. (ii) Assess the stability of phenotype allocation over time (iii) To test feasibility of delivering a POC assay in the NHS intensive care setting.

Although the pathophysiology of meconium obstruction of prematurity (MOP) is not clear, it is known that the decrease of the intestinal peristalsis due to decreased intestinal perfusion during antenatal or perinatal period. Recently, the level of citrulline has been used as an index of function and injury of the small intestine State. This study aimed to evaluate citrulline level of cord blood as a marker for early detection and observe changes in intestinal blood flow in MOP patient. And We aimed to confirm the efficacy of the AT/ET ratio (ratio of the pulmonary artery time-to-peak velocity interval to the right ventricular ejection time) of the prenatal pulmonary artery as a noninvasive predictor of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome.

In preterm infants with neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (NRDS), exogenous pulmonary surfactant(PS) replacement therapy is one of the most important therapeutic breakthrough to reduce neonatal mortality. Nowadays, PS is commonly used in newborn infants with respiratory distress, but the incidences of bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD) and/or death are inconsistent. The result indicates that not all preterm infants with respiratory distress can be beneficial from PS. In 2017, the international neonatal ARDS (NARDS) collaborative group provides the first consensus definition for NARDS. And whether or not PS being beneficial for preterm infants with NARDS remains unknown.

Preterm neonates usually develop respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) for which they need respiratory support, which may be invasive and non-invasive depend on the availability and individual need. Non-invasive is relatively safe but non-invasive high frequency oscillatory ventilation (nHFOV) is not appropriately evaluated in neonates as primary support. So the investigators hypothesized that nHFOV is relatively safe and effective in comparison with invasive ventilation for preterm neonates with RDS.

Case-control study of inhaled Nitric Oxide (iNO) treatment of full-term and preterm infants. The main objective of this study is to investigate the association between premature birth and its later comorbidities (neuroendocrine, metabolic, cognitive, etc) with iNO treatment and the maturation of the HPG axis during minipuberty.

RESEARCH DESIGN Multicenter, randomized, controlled trial. RECRUITMENT Entry criteria Preterm infants 28-35 6/7 weeks' gestation and less than 48 hours of age who have a clinical diagnosis of respiratory distress syndrome. Infants who on NCPAP and FiO2 ≥0.30 will randomized to curosuf or infasurf via MIST. Exclusion criteria Infants will be excluded if there is a congenital anomaly or an alternative cause for respiratory distress. Babies who require emergent intubation will not be enrolled in the interventions. Parental Consent will be obtained prior to randomization.

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple doses of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell injection in patients with Mild to Moderate Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), and to further explore the efficacy, pharmacodynamic profile and appropriate dose of administration to provide a basis for the use of safer and more effective treatments for patients with Mild to Moderate Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). Participants are required to sign an informed consent form and, after undergoing a series of tests and meeting the protocol's entry and exclusion criteria, are assigned to a dose group for intravenous infusion of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells. Each subject will receive three infusions.

This is a phase I/II, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial that will evaluate the safety and potential efficacy of therapy with extracellular vesicles (EVs) obtained from mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs), patients with moderate to severe acute respiratory distress syndrome due to COVID-19 or other etiology. Participants will be allocated to receive EVs obtained from MSCs or placebo (equal volume of Plasma-Lyte A). Blinding will cover the participants, the multidisciplinary intensive care team and the investigators.

Randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of intravenous metoprolol in patients with Acute Respiratory Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS).
