Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages Up to 72 hours
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Child

Study population: Healthy newborns in Regular and Observation nurseries who are between 0-72 hrs of age.

Who may be able to join

  • Infants with gestational age > or = 35weeks and birth weight > 2500g, who are hemodynamically stable, have no cardiorespiratory abnormalities and have no evidence of sepsis. If a blood culture was drawn due to the presence of maternal risk factors (e.g. maternal fever, prolonged rupture of membranes), patients will be included only if the blood culture result is negative and in case of intrapartum antibiotic treatment, ancillary blood tests (CBC with differential, CRP) are also within the normal range

Who cannot join

  • Infants with gestational age < 35weeks or birth weight < 2500g and with evidence of neonatal sepsis either culture proven or clinically suspected.

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Frequency and Persistence of Wide Pulse Pressure in the Neonatal Population

Wide Pulse Pressure is frequently present in the normal, full-term neonatal population. This study will evaluate the frequency and persistence of wide pulse pressure in the neonatal population. Using a prospective study design in the Regular newborn and Observation nurseries of SIUH, North site. Healthy newborns that are between 0-72 hrs of age will have their blood pressures measured using the oscillometric method. This data will offer insight into whether the presence of wide pulse pressure in otherwise healthy newborn infants warrants further cardiovascular evaluation

NewbornsHealthy newborns in Regular and Observation nurseries who are between 0-72 hrs of age.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. incidence of wide pulse pressures in healthy newborn

    This study will determine the incidence of wide pulse pressures in healthy newborn infants during the first days of life.

    Measured: 15 mins a day

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Philip Roth, MD, PhD (718-226-9360, Philip_Roth@siuh.edu), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

incidence of wide pulse pressures in healthy newborn (time frame: 15 mins a day). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 10 Sep 2012.
